Last's week teaser was another successful one, and we're starting to ride some momentum over the last two months. Not only have we hit on back-to-back teasers, but we've also hit on five of our last seven.

Way too early MLB betting odds

MLB's top free agent -- Aaron Judge -- is officially off the market as the reigning AL MVP elected to return to the New York Yankees after signing a 9-year, $360 million contract extension on Wednesday, but does that necessarily mean the Yankees are the team to beat in 2023?

Jump on this NHL/NBA parlay for Hump Day

Both the NHL and NBA have at least seven games on Wednesday, which means ... options. And options are good, but that also make you more susceptible to placing multiple bets, which isn't necessarily a good thing.

With only three NBA games on Tuesday, do yourself a favor and avoid a parlay and/or an SGP, and go with this teaser.

NBA same-game parlay for Tuesday: Clippers and Trail Blazers

There might only be three NBA games on Tuesday, but that's not going to stop us from placing a parlay. However, we're going with an SGP instead of a standard parlay due to the small slate of games.

NFL Week 12: What we learned and how it applies to Week 13 wagers

NFL Week 12 best teaser

We've dropped back-to-back NFL teasers for the first time in a while, but we're confident this teaser gets us back on track.
