Sports Betting: July 28 - August 3, 2025
Community Cappers Lock In Their Weekly Picks
Last Week: 2-1 | +1.67u
Jake Irvin Under 4.5 Ks (-122) ✅ / The UNDERground Lab
2u: JH Lee/Friedl Hit Parlay (-108) ✅ / Locksmith
Noah Cameron Under 4.5 Ks (-152) ❌ / The UNDERground Lab
2025 Record: 46-37 | +8.79u
Jurickson Profar is a switch-hitter who loves facing a lefty.
He's batting .237 on the season, and a whopping .400 against lefties.
Not to mention he gets 45-year old (lefty) Rich Hill on the bump tonight, who has thrown one game for the Royals this season (6 Hits, 3 ER, 90 Pitches).
Profar is 1-3 against Hill in his career, and sits in the 1-spot for the Braves tonight.
Fernando Tatis is hitting .268 on the season, which ties for 60th in the MLB and 3rd on the Padres.
Tonight he’ll face bulldog Frankie Montas, who has been on 5 teams in the last 4 years and has yet to find a rhythm.
Look for Tatis to settle in at home after a 10-game away stand, against a pitcher who has seen better days.
Playable to -130
Misiorowski is due some regression now after obliterating the Dodgers and Mariners who have been laying goose eggs lately against righties.
Meanwhile, the Cubs on the other hand aren’t.
Their splits against righties on the road this past month rank in the top percentile.
They’re also batting a high rate of FB’s.
Meanwhile, Misiorowski is getting most of his K’s from his four seamer, slider, and CB that are mostly in the mid/lower zone.
The Cubs can display patience at bat as they have a high BB% and we’ve seen glimpses of Misiorowski struggle with command.
Hoping that is our edge tonight on top of the Cubs splits.
I’ll gladly take it at this line and price. Give us the UNDER!
Steer bats 6th in the lineup tonight against RHP Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who has had an impressive sophomore season.
Yamamoto: 2.55 ERA, 124 Ks, 1.05 WHIP
And while this won't be an easy matchup for him, Steer is a strong hitter who consistently excels against righty pitchers (.256 AB vs RHP this year).
With the other leg we have William Contreras in a big home game against the Cubs.
Both teams have identical 62-43 records, with the first of a 3-game series starting tonight.
Contreras will get starter Matthew Boyd throwing for the Cubs - a lefty who struggles big time against right-handed hitters.
This combination carries a bit more risk than the first hit parlay, but the odds are strong enough to deserve a full 1 unit play.
Playable to +122

|---|---|
You manage action at three-plus sportsbooks and crave one master ledger. | You fire the occasional parlay in a single app and call it a day. |
You tag bets or run models and want ROI splits by strategy, sport, or odds band. | You never revisit past results and have no interest in analytics. |
You create content or sell picks and want embedded bet widgets + affiliate links. | You have zero desire to share slips or engage with a betting community. |
You dread tax season and want auto-formatted CSV exports for your accountant. | Your existing spreadsheet already does everything you need, and you like it that way. |

BTR Bet brings genuine value to bettors looking for organization, clear analytics, and social sharing capabilities.
While casual bettors may not fully leverage all social features, the analytical capabilities alone make it worth considering.
It won't revolutionize every bettor's workflow, but for those serious about improving their betting habits, BTR Bet is definitely a tool worth giving a chance.
