In the final hour of VSiN's Weekend Morning Line on April 12, 2026, hosts Gresh and Will Hill dive deep into the unfolding drama of the Masters Tournament, focusing on the final-round implications for Rory McIlroy, Cameron Young, and Scottie Scheffler. Despite McIlroy’s shaky Saturday round, both hosts express cautious optimism about his ability to handle pressure, especially given his experience and the psychological edge of a one-shot lead on the 18th. They analyze betting lines, including the over 273.5 winning score at +125 and Cam Young’s birdie prop, while debating whether the final group’s dynamics will favor a repeat champion or a breakout winner. The conversation shifts to MLB, with Eric Cohen advocating for the Marlins’ playoff odds at +570 and the Yankees’ run line as an avoid-the-sweep play. In the NBA, the hosts assess playoff seeding implications, with skepticism toward the Hawks’ bench rotation and cautious optimism for the Hornets as a potential dark horse. The episode closes with a mix of betting picks across hockey, baseball, and NASCAR, emphasizing value plays and psychological angles over favorites.
Rory McIlroy remains a strong contender despite a poor Saturday round; his experience and mental maturity may help him close out a one-shot lead on Sunday.
The over 273.5 winning score at +125 offers compelling value, as a 68 from both McIlroy and Young would still trigger a win.
Eric Cohen backs Justin Rose at 15-to-1 for redemption and value, citing his 66 in last year’s final round.
The Marlins’ +570 playoff odds are seen as a strong value bet due to their strong second-half record and Cy Young-caliber pitching from Sandy Alcantara.
The Hornets are viewed as the most intriguing team in the East, with potential to upset the Knicks or Celtics in a first-round matchup.

Masters Final Round Preview: McIlroy, Young, and the Pressure of 18
“I just think that if you have neophytes in there or people who, again, and McIlroy was one of these people at one point in time where we thought he's kind of shaking his boots a little bit in certain spots, now it feels like maybe he's kind of graduated from that.”
Scottie Scheffler’s Missed Opportunity and Value Plays
“I'm out on Scottie, which sounds very strange to say. He would have to be otherworldly on approach with the putter being a little bulky.”
MLB: Marlins, Yankees, and the Avoid-the-Sweep Strategy
“The Marlins since the all-star break last year have been the best team record wise in the national league. They have the pitching.”
NBA Playoff Implications and Dark Horse Teams
The hosts assess the NBA’s final-day seeding drama, with the Hawks sitting key players due to being locked in the 5th or 6th seed. They discuss the Hornets as the most intriguing team, the Knicks’ lack of change from last year, and the Celtics’ depth as a potential upset threat.
Betting Angles: Value Over Favorites and Psychological Plays
The hosts break down their best bets across sports, including the Penguins moneyline, Angels over Reds, and Joey Logano’s top-10 bet. They emphasize avoiding overvalued favorites and betting on psychological edges, like the Hornets’ motivation to avoid being the 10th seed.
“I'm out on Scottie, which sounds very strange to say. He would have to be otherworldly on approach with the putter being a little bulky.”
“I just think that if you have neophytes in there or people who, again, and McIlroy was one of these people at one point in time where we thought he's kind of shaking his boots a little bit in certain spots, now it feels like maybe he's kind of graduated from that.”
“The biggest tip that I can give you is watch those golfers in those final nine holes in the Masters because it's trite to say, well, that's where the tournament is really won and lost.”
