The New York Yankees and Los Angeles Angels finish off their series in the Bronx on ESPN’s Sunday Night Baseball, and we are set to make our MLB predictions for our MLB pick of the day for Sunday, April 15th.

All Of The April 15th MLB Betting Odds Can Be Seen Here!

2012 Baseball Picks Of The Day Record: 5-3 (+$380)

MLB Play Of The Day: Los Angeles Angels @ New York Yankees
Date: Sunday, April 15th, 8:20 ET
Location: Yankee Stadium, Bronx, NY
MLB Betting Odds: New York -180
Baseball On TV/MLB TV Schedule: ESPN

We really haven’t seen the runs hit the board the way that we figured they would in this series, but the time might be here for that to happen. Ivan Nova did win a lot of games last year, but he could really be pitching for his spot in the rotation, knowing that his splits just aren’t all that great. Jerome Williams is going to be making his debut for the season against a team that has to be hungry to get some more runs on the board. Historically, this was a higher scoring series before this year, and the bats are finally going to fly at night on both sides, as this game should feature at least a dozen runs as we see it.

April 15th MLB Free Pick Of The Day: Angels/Yankees Over 10 (+100)

Week 6 of the 2012 AFL season is upon us, and here at Cappers Info, we are taking a look at all of the games that are on the AFL betting lines and making our Arena Football predictions for the week ahead!

Week 6 AFL Matchup: Cleveland Gladiators @ Tampa Bay Storm
Date: Friday, April 13th, 7:30 ET
Arena Football Week 6 Odds: Cleveland -3.5 (105.5)


The wrong team is favored in this one in our eyes. Cleveland really hasn’t done all that much to make us think that it can get the job done in this one on the road against a Tampa Bay team that really has played quite well at home this year. It could be an ugly, low scoring affair though, as we have no confidence in either of these QBs. Still, the Storm should be good for the upset.

AFL Week 6 Pick: Tampa Bay Storm +3.5

Week 6 AFL Matchup: New Orleans VooDoo @ San Antonio Talons
Date: Friday, April 13th, 8:00 ET
Arena Football Week 6 Odds: San Antonio -4 (114)


The VooDoo are playing well at the moment, and they are probably the best team in the Southeast Division. We have watched plenty of this San Antonio team this year, and there is just something that we think is off about it. It is the first game on the NFL Network in the history of arena football here in the site of the Alamo, but we still think this is a game that New Orleans is going to win.

AFL Week 6 Pick: New Orleans VooDoo +4

Week 6 AFL Matchup: Utah Blaze @ Jacksonville Sharks
Date: Friday. April 13th, 8:00 ET
Arena Football Week 6 Odds: Utah -1 (115)


The Blaze are going to have a tough test in this one, but we think they are going to pass it. Flying across the country generally isn’t a good thing, but they do have the great equalizer of knowing that Jacksonville was on bye last week. Remember that teams can’t practice during their byes, so generally speaking, that is awful news for a team that is getting some momentum together. We just don’t know who is going to be quarterbacking for the Sharks, and we have no confidence that they are going to be able to get the job done.

AFL Week 6 Pick: Utah Blaze -1

Week 6 AFL Matchup: Chicago Rush @ Georgia Force
Date: Saturday, April 14th, 7:00 ET
Arena Football Week 6 Odds: Chicago -4.5 (106.5)


The Force just allowed 92 points last week to Philadelphia. Of course, we don’t think that there are going to be quite that many points allowed this time around, but we still think that Georgia is a farce. Chicago is still the only undefeated team left standing in this league for a reason, and it should be able to come on the road and take care of business by two scores in this one.

AFL Week 6 Pick: Chicago Rush -4.5

Week 6 AFL Matchup: Orlando Predators @ Pittsburgh Power
Date: Saturday, April 14th, 7:30 ET
Arena Football Week 6 Odds: Pittsburgh -2 (89.5)


It’s a really, really low total tonight, and it might be one that is justified for the Power and the Predators, knowing that they are the two of the three worst teams in the league offensively speaking. That being said, Orlando is a team that we still see with some promise, especially with the addition of WR Bobby Sippio this week. Pittsburgh got the best of these two teams in the first meeting, but there were nothing but scabs for the most part in the game. Orlando has the better team in this one, and we think that it will get the job done and pull off the upset on Saturday night.

AFL Week 6 Pick: Orlando Predators +2

Week 6 AFL Matchup: Arizona Rattlers @ Iowa Barnstormers
Date: Saturday, April 14th, 8:00 ET
Arena Football Week 6 Odds: Arizona -6.5 (116.5)


This is one of the toughest games to handicap on the slate this week and is a game that we don’t really recommend playing. That being said, to try to take a stab at this one, we are going to go with the Rattlers, knowing that their defense is really playing well at the moment. If that ‘D’ gets into a groove, QB Nick Davila and the offense should be able to pick up the slack in the Barn.

AFL Week 6 Pick: Arizona Rattlers -6.5

Week 6 AFL Matchup: Milwaukee Mustangs @ Spokane Shock
Date: Saturday, April 14th, 10:00 ET
Arena Football Week 6 Odds: Milwaukee -1.5 (116)


This is quite the intriguing game this week. The Mustangs are playing well, but they are coming off of their bye week and have to fly across the country. Spokane finally showed a pulse this past week with QB Kyle Rowley back under center, and if not for a late gaffe in its game last week, it would have beaten San Jose. That being said, we think that home field advantage will play into the Shock’s hands on Saturday night, and they’ll get back in the win column at the expense of Milwaukee in what should be a great game.

AFL Week 6 Pick: Spokane Shock +1.5

Week 6 AFL Matchup: San Jose SaberCats @ Philadelphia Soul
Date: Saturday, April 14th, 6:00 ET
Arena Football Week 6 Odds: Philadelphia -4.5 (129.5)


Usually any total above about 125 or so is an automatic under play in our eyes, and there is a reason that this total has come down 3.5 points from the open on Saturday. These two teams are really setting up for a great showdown in what might amount to be an ArenaBowl preview. This is just Philly’s second home game of the season, and it has already dropped 84 and 92 points in two of its three road games this year. San Jose has its work cut out for it on the road in this one.

AFL Week 6 Pick: Philadelphia Soul -4.5

On Saturday, there are a handful of games on the basketball television schedule that we have circled that should be good ones. Check out our NBA picks for Saturday!

NBA Matchup: Indiana Pacers @ Milwaukee Bucks
Date: Saturday, April 14th, 8:30 ET
Location: Bradley Center, Milwaukee, WI
NBA Betting Odds: Milwaukee -3
NBA TV Schedule: Local TV

There is a point that the Bucks are going to fall off of the face of the earth once and for all in all likelihood, and we wouldn’t be surprised if tonight is the night that that happens. Indiana really should be the favored team in this game, but Milwaukee is getting the nod from the oddsmakers, knowing that it really needs this game to get back to .500 and to stick around with the Knicks and 76ers in the quest for those final playoff spots in the Eastern Conference. In the end, we think that the Pacers win this duel more often than not.

NBA Pick: Indiana +3

NBA Matchup: Phoenix Suns @ San Antonio Spurs
Date: Saturday, April 14th, 9:30 ET
Location: AT&T Center, San Antonio, TX
NBA Betting Odds: San Antonio -9.5
NBA TV Schedule: ESPN

The Spurs are the real deal this year, and we think that they are going to be a force to be reckoned with in the West. That being said, we aren’t so sure that this is the best matchup in the world for them. Yes, this Phoenix team is coming off of a tremendous and emotional win in Houston last night to keep its playoff hopes alive, but in the end, we think that there is a real possibility for the Suns to get the job done in this one for a second straight road win in the Lone Star State. The Suns love to run, and San Antonio is going to let them do just that.

NBA Pick: Phoenix +9.5

Our MLB free picks continue with our baseball pick of the day for Saturday. Join us for our San Diego Padres @ Los Angeles Dodgers free predictions and analysis!

2012 Baseball Picks Of The Day Record: 4-3 (+$215)

MLB Play Of The Day: San Diego Padres @ Los Angeles Dodgers
Date: Saturday, April 14th, 9:10 ET
Location: Dodgers Stadium, Los Angeles, CA
MLB Betting Odds: Los Angeles -131
Baseball On TV/MLB TV Schedule: FOX Sports

We are a bit puzzled as to why the Dodgers, who are a 7-1 team that hasn’t lost a game this year at home quite yet, are only laying such a short number to the Padres on Saturday night. The Pads have no offense whatsoever, and though Ted Lilly hasn’t thrown a pitch yet this season, we think that he is going to be able to take advantage of going against this awful offense here at the comforts of Dodgers Stadium. Joe Wieland is going to be making his first career start in this one, and we just don’t think that that bodes well for the Padres whatsoever. Not only are we going to take the Dodgers in this one, but we are going to be playing the run line as well in what could be a blowout in favor of the hosts.

April 4th MLB Free Pick Of The Day: Los Angeles Dodgers -1.5 (+165)
