ST. JOHN'S VS ARIZONA ST. | 3/20 | 9:10 PM EDT
YESTERDAY 12:09 AM
The Sun Devils have been a little up and down but they did beat Mississippi State, Utah State and Kansas early in the year. They also won six of their last eight games with the two losses coming to Oregon, one on the road and the other in overtime during the conference tournament. ASU's offense ranks 68th and their defense 79th. St. John's beat VCU, Villanova and Marquette twice but the Red Storm played one of the worst non-conference schedules in the country to build a 12-0 record. The Johnnies' offense ranks 69th and their defense ranks 111th. The Sun Devils will hold a big advantage in getting to the free throw line. They love to drive the lane and they play solid position defense. Lay the small number. My projection: Arizona State 80 - Saint John's 74
16-7 IN LAST 23 CBB PICKS | +802
2-1 IN LAST 3 STJOHN ATS PICKS | +91

SEATTLE VS OAKLAND | 3/20 | 5:35 AM EDT
11:48 AM
Seattle blew its roster up in the off-season, but is that a bad thing? The Mariners were the worst-hitting contender in baseball. Spring has gone better than expected, and they have some edges against the favored A's. Oakland's power-hungry lineup is most-successful when it hits homers, and Marco Gonzales doesn't give many up -- he allowed four two-HR games in 29 starts last year. The A's lineup is a lifetime .182 against Marco as he enters his age 27 year. Seattle will have the crowd behind it thanks to Ichiro, who will start. Mike Fiers had a 5.21 ERA away from home in 2018 for Oakland, and allowed 11 runs in 14.2 innings vs. Seattle. It's worth an Opening Day flyer on the underdog.
