Jets (-5.5) vs. Buccaneers (-112)
“Baker Mayfield won’t play, and backup Jake Browning is dealing with a back injury. So the Bucs are going with second-year QB Connor Bazelak and rookie Jalon Daniels, both undrafted free agents,” SportsLine expert Larry Hartstein reported. “The Jets will play their starters Friday, though it’s unclear for how long. In last year’s preseason opener, the Jets crushed the Packers 30-10. Coach Aaron Glenn played his starters in the first two preseason games last year and is expected to follow suit this August. Rookie QB Cade Klubnik, a fourth-round pick out of Clemson, has opened eyes at Jets’ camp as he battles Bailey Zappe for the right to back up Geno Smith. Thanks to an aggressive offseason, the Jets possess a much deeper and more talented roster than in Glenn’s debut season. Look for that depth to be on display Friday.” Bet the Jets at DraftKings here and claim $150 in bonus bets after your first $5 wager as a new user:
Dolphins (-166) to defeat Commanders
“Malik Willis has taken a step forward in practices lately and will play, along with some other starters,” Hartstein reported. “The Commanders also will play some starters, but there are bigger injury concerns on Washington’s side. Dan Quinn went 0-3 straight-up in the preseason last year and is 7-20 all time. Miami may not get more than a few regular-season wins, but I like the Dolphins here.” Bet on the Dolphins at DraftKings here and claim $150 in bonus bets after your first $5 wager as a new user:
Blue Jays (+1.5) vs. Yankees (-131)
The Blue Jays are 5-2 over their last seven games, and one of those losses came in a one-run game to cover this total. They are also 8-1 with a +1.5-run spread over their last nine games. The Blue Jays are starting Shane Bieber, and Toronto has won or lost by one in five of his last six starts. The Yankees are coming off a 1-0 loss to Seattle, and they haven’t covered a 1.5-run spread in any of Gerrit Cole’s last six starts. The model projects the Blue Jays to cover in 66% of simulations.
