Tuesday, May 24, 2022 Kansas City Royals vs. Arizona Diamondbacks (MLB) - 9:40 PM EDT Premium Pick Pick: Money Line: -205 Arizona Diamondbacks Rating: 10* Mike's Tuesday Power Play (WIN) Arizona's Zac Gallen is on another planet right now! Look for him to stay hot as he keeps the Royals' bats on ice. Take the KC Royals NOT to score in Inning 1 for 10 BIG Stars! Saturday, May 21, 2022 Tampa Bay Rays vs. Baltimore Orioles (MLB) - 7:05 PM EDT Premium Pick Pick: Money Line: -122 Tampa Bay Rays Rating: 10* Preakness Exotic Winners & MLB Bonus (WIN) In MLB action, look for LHP Jeffrey Springs (a red-hot 1.66 ERA this season thus far) will shutdown Baltimore so we'll be glad to play BALTIMORE NO SCORE for Inning 1 -10 Star Play. My Preakness Stakes picks in take-it-to-the-window fashion are as follows: $4 Trifecta Wheel on 5,8 with 1,4,5,8 with ALL. $2 Superfecta Wheel on 5,8 with 1,4,5,8 with 1,4,5,9 with ALL. $1 Super Hi-5 Wheel on 5,8 with 1,4,5,8 with 1,2,4,5,8 with 1,2,4,5 with 1,2,4,5. My personal individual Hi-Roller plays (10) on the $2 Superfecta are: 8-4-5-1----8-5-2-4----8-5-2-1----4-8-5-2----4-5-8-2----5-8-2-4----5-2-8-4----8-4-1-5----5-2-4-8----8-2-5-4. My (10) individual $1 Super Hi-5 plays are: 4-5-8-1-2-----5-8-4-2-1-----8-5-2-1-4-----5-8-2-4-1-----5-4-8-1-2-----8-4-1-5-2-----8-4-5-1-2-----4-8-1-5-2-----1-8-5-4-2-----8-5-4-1-2. Even though it was a baffling 4th straight loss for me in the Derby a few weeks back, It was another amazing Preakness Stakes (been lucky in Baltimore & New York the past 2 seasons) as I turned in winners in both the Trifecta & Superfecta. I just missed the Super-Hi-5 (paid $651.90 on $1) as I had the top 4 in order but horse 5 finished 6th! The $4 winning Trifecta paid $266 & each $2 Superfecta paid you $325.80. In the race, #5 Early Voting got on the gate alertly, eased outside & secured command from the pace-setter horse #7 Armagmac approaching the stretch & dug in to fend off Epicenter. #8 Epicenter squeezed back in the opening furlong, settled off the pace (was 7th @ the 3/4-mile mark) & advanced into the stretch. He pursued past the 8th pole, eased out & finished gamely. #2 Creative Minister was 5th in range of the leaders @ the 3/4 mark & crept closer in the far turn. He worked his way between the rivals in mid stretch but was no match for them to the wire. The filly #4 Secret Oath was brushed @ the break & fell to 9th @ the 1/2-mile. She circled 5-wide under pressure pursuing down the stretch & finished 4th (6 1/4-lengths behind Early Voting) but bagged a $99,000 prize on the day. Stay tuned as I look for another big payout in the Belmont Stakes from NY in a few more weeks. Mike Handzelek's 2022 MLB Overall Record: really warming up @ 10-4 for a profitable 71%.
