- BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS offers new users $150 in bonus bets on a first-bet win or up to $1,500 in bonus bets if the qualifying wager loses, with availability dependent on location.
- SportsLine expert Matt Severance backed the Cardinals money line (-160) over the Rockies, citing Colorado starter Kyle Freeland's road splits (0-7, 8.29 ERA away from Coors Field) despite his recent complete game at home.
- SportsLine UFC analyst Kyle Marley picked Quillan Salkilld (-140) to beat Mateusz Gamrot, calling Salkilld "the real deal" with a striking edge over Gamrot's grappling base.
- SportsLine UFC analyst Daniel Vithlani predicted Diyar Nurghozay (-165) to defeat Bruno Lopes by knockout via "a crushing body kick," citing Lopes' back-to-back knockout losses and questionable durability.
- The three-leg parlay — Cardinals ML, Salkilld, and Nurghozay — pays +347 (risking $100 to profit $347), with odds subject to change.
- The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every MLB game 10,000 times, entered Week 20 on a 42-29 run on top-rated MLB picks and returned nearly 30 units of profit on home run props in 2025.
Why it matters: The $1,500 loss-back bonus on BetMGM is materially larger than the standard $150 win-side offer across competing books like DraftKings, giving new users meaningful downside protection on a Saturday card headlined by a UFC Fight Night main event and an MLB divisional matchup where a struggling Colorado road pitcher faces a motivated Cardinals club.
