Over the last 365 days across every sport, Joe has issued exactly 34 plays at the 5% Max Bet level — fewer than three per month. He's gone 25-9 (73%), +72.4 units on all of them. Today's NBA play is the sixth 5% issued this postseason. The previous five (5-0) cashed. The matchups have warranted every one of them.

This 10-2 (83%) NBA postseason run is sitting on top of a 20-12 all-sports stretch, +26.15 units — which is exactly what you're investing in with a 30-Day All-Access Pass at $199. Under $5.00 per day, every play Joe issues through the NBA Finals and into the MLB season. New subscribers stack an additional 10 days free, bringing total access to 40 days for the same price.

(923) Pittsburgh Pirates at (924) Toronto Blue Jays: Moneyline
3:07pm EDT - May 23/2026

THE PLAY: Pittsburgh Pirates -154 Paul Skenes (RHP), Patrick Corbin (LHP) Must Start

It used to be called "Fade Patrick Corbin Day," as there was a time when he took the mound over the last couple of seasons, it was easy money. But those days are gone, as he's actually been more than reliable lately. However, he's not facing some tomato can on the mound; he's going up against Paul Skenes. So that means, "Fade Patrick Corbin Day" is BACK! Pirates are in a good spot to bounce back after a series-opening loss last night to the Jays. Skenes is looking to bounce back as well after having his 20-inning scoreless streak get blown up last start by the Phillies. Bubba Chandler struck out 11 Jays last night, and it was the defense that let him down. If he can get 11 K's, I like the chances of Skenes also getting a lot of swings and misses. Jays had to use their closer Varland for a 6-out save last night, so the Pirates pen is in better shape. At this price, it's worth backing one of the best pitchers in the game in a bounce-back spot today.

Consultant Bio

Get a real edge in sports investing with someone who’s seen the game from all sides and can give you a straightforward plan for success. Joe’s journey started on the baseball diamond, where he played Division I and then professionally in the minor leagues. That experience gave him a unique understanding that you can't get from a spreadsheet or AI; He knows the pressure of high-stakes competition, the subtle shifts in momentum that decide games, and the mindset of the athletes playing.

After his playing career, Joe spent two decades in sports media, where he had a front-row seat covering all the major sports. This gave him a bird’s eye view of the entire sports landscape, learning how to see beyond the headlines and understand the narratives that drive the markets. The most crucial part of his handicapping education, however, came over the last ten years working side by side with some of the biggest, most successful, and legendary professional handicappers in the business. This was his masterclass in Sports Investing. That’s where he learned firsthand the do's and don'ts from the very best. Joe learned how they applied different analytical approaches, and more importantly, how they used data to maximize their investments while strictly limiting risk.

Joe’s handicapping approach combines everything he’s learned from these three unique perspectives. He has the gut instincts of a former pro athlete with the deep research of a seasoned journalist and the disciplined, proven strategies of elite sports investors. Joe believes that it’s not just about giving you 'picks'; it’s about providing you with smart, well-researched selections that create a smarter, long-term way to grow your bankroll. When you team up with him, you get a true insider's view and a clear, effective plan to tackle the sports markets for steady and informed ROI success.
