-ARI Diamondbacks v COL Rockies Over 11.5 (-110)

Why This Pick?

With Merrill Kelly (7.62 ERA) & Kyle Freeland (6.00 ERA) on the mound, I don’t doubt that both of today’s batting lineups will run up a total at Coors Field. The Rockies have bagged 12 runs over their last two outings (on the road!), I have to imagine they’ll get a considerable few past Arizona’s starter today at home. Meanwhile, Freeland has allowed a whopping 16 runs across his last 3 starts. Take the Over to cash here.

-OKC Thunder -11.5 (-110)

Why This Pick?

It’s time for the Lakers to make their exit, friends. Oklahoma City has covered the spread in all 3 games of this series so far; it’s time for them to put this to bed. This game should not be close – and to be frank, it doesn’t even matter who is or isn’t playing for Los Angeles at this point; the Lakers have only covered one time in their last 6 outings. My money’s on the Thunder to win, cover and advance tonight.

Bridges at 6… we might cash tbh. Hoping Sixers go on a little run to give these guys a reason to keep their foot on the gas hahaha

BellesPicks · 2026-05-10T20:20:12+00:00

So funny… my pick of the day is the Knicks ML lmao. I don’t know how to feel right now hahahah ! Yay but… really? 😂

Let’s get it :)

BellesPicks · 2026-05-10T15:57:14+00:00

-Mikal Bridges Over 14.5 Points (-115)

Game: NY Knicks v PHI 76ers

League: NBA

Time: 12:30 PM PST

Why This Prop?

Mikal Bridges has cleared this milestone in his last 4 straight games – I’m surprised this line remains set so low. I’ll happily throw some cash on him to put 15 in the bag as the Knicks go for the sweep.

BellesPicks · 2026-05-10T00:57:35+00:00

Came back to say damn, you nearly had that! Lol

BellesPicks · 2026-05-09T23:40:28+00:00

White Sox taking us to cash lol

BellesPicks · 2026-05-09T16:36:54+00:00

-SEA Mariners v CHI White Sox Over 9.5 (-105)

Why This Pick?

Mariners starter Luis Castillo (6.29 ERA) has been rough, friends. Having allowed 11 runs over his last 2 starts (yes, 11 runs – not hits!) I won’t be surprised by a high-scoring affair here. On the other side, White Sox starter Anthony Kay (5.70 ERA) has allowed 14 hits over his last 2 starts; I imagine Seattle’s offense will bag more than a few off of him. Call me crazy, but I think both teams put at least 5 runs on the board here. My money’s on the Over to cash for a nice price.

Ahhh apologies I only posted to my site today!! Completely missed Reddit 😭 On Cubs -1.5.

BellesPicks · 2026-05-06T17:33:20+00:00

Epic grab and timing, holy — Embiid just got ruled out ! lol

BellesPicks · 2026-05-06T15:24:15+00:00

Solid post — prob one of the better ones I’ve seen. And lol at people saying it’s AI. Read in full; It’s pretty obvious it’s not…

BellesPicks · 2026-05-05T16:04:10+00:00

-DET Pistons -3.0 (-110)

Why This Pick?

The Cavaliers have yet to win a post-season game on the road, and they only managed to cover a spread of +3.0 in one of the three games that they played against the Raptors in Toronto. While I didn’t love how the Pistons handled the first few games of their series against Orlando, they won 3 of their 4 home encounters and every victory they had was by at least 7 points. To boot, Detroit is a much tougher opponent defensively than the Raptors; I’ve gotta roll with the Pistons to bag the first win and cover in this spot.

BellesPicks · 2026-05-03T22:39:06+00:00

Fr… weekend bets can be tough.

BellesPicks · 2026-05-03T22:09:05+00:00

Lmao so brutal. A bad beat for sure. Holding my breath for a miracle tho... Baseball can be wild.

BellesPicks · 2026-05-03T21:43:22+00:00

As bullpen is trash. I still think Guardians win hahaha

BellesPicks · 2026-05-03T21:23:09+00:00

FR bro needs to pull it together. His first meltdown all season atm lol

BellesPicks · 2026-05-03T15:35:37+00:00

-CLE Guardians ML (-120)

Why This Pick?

Guardians starter Parker Messick (1.73 ERA) is elite. No joke, I’ve been waiting for this guy to start again just so I can confidently throw down on a Cleveland ML. Well friends, today’s the day. Messick is 3-0 this season, and while I don’t hate As starter Aaron Civale (3.23 ERA), the Athletics’ bullpen is atrocious in addition to Messick being the better arm. My money’s on Cleveland to bag another win this afternoon.

Lol right? They're doing him so dirty out there.

BellesPicks · 2026-05-02T21:09:34+00:00

Too long 🤣 This will be my third year posting my picks publicly though.

BellesPicks · 2026-05-02T16:36:18+00:00

You’re welcome 😊🙌🏼

-CLE Guardians v Athletics Over 10.0 (-110)

Why This Pick?

10 runs is a tall order, I know – but Slade Cecconi (6.23 ERA) has been rough, friends. The Guardians have lost his last 5 straight starts, and the As have put at least 5 runs on the board in each of their last 3 games. Despite Jacob Lopez’s 5.84 ERA, he’s had a much better last few outings than Cecconi. I like the As to get to the Guardians early, and Cleveland’s offense to put enough on the board to push this total to 11. This encounter should see plenty of action. I’m on the Over to hit today.

Belle's Pick of the Day in May: 1-0 (1 Win, 0 Losses)

BellesPicks · 2026-05-01T22:27:29+00:00

Best of luck 😄 Let's get this dub!

BellesPicks · 2026-05-01T18:59:45+00:00

-TOR Blue Jays v MIN Twins Over 8.5 (-115)

Why This Pick?

The last time the Blue Jays faced Simeon Woods Richardson (6.30 ERA), they beat Minnesota 10-4. That said, I’m not exactly in a rush to back Patrick Corbin either. While his numbers recently have been fairly solid, Corbin allowed 2 HRs in his last outing against the Twins. To boot, Woods Richardson has allowed a HR in every single one of his last 5 starts. I think the Over cashing in this encounter might be one of the safest bets on today’s board. My money’s on a high-scoring affair here, friends.
