ANALYSIS: Los Angeles, an underdog for the first time since 2019, remains without three big bats in the injured Corey Seager, Cody Bellinger and Max Muncy. San Diego meanwhile, expects MVP candidate Fernando Tatis Jr. back in the lineup (see news feed) after sitting Sunday with a shoulder issue. It's former Dodger Yu Darvish (6-2, 2.57) on the mound for San Diego. He has allowed just 59 hits while striking out 97 across 84 innings this season and has a 1.29 ERA in two starts vs. L.A. It's lefty Julio Urias (9-2, 3.54) for the Dodgers, and the Friars have won their past six vs. southpaws.

ANALYSIS: This is just the second time in 73 games that the Dodgers aren't favorites, and I don't think you should take the opportunity to get them at plus money. Quite the opposite, actually. If anything, there's got to be a real reason a market darling like the Dodgers is being offered at this price. I am seeing about a 15% drop off in the Dodgers' offensive numbers on the road this season, which is illustrated by their 122 to 104 home/away split in the weighted run creation plus metric. Then factor in that the Padres are a 25-14 home team playing behind Yu Darvish, who has been in spectacular form when pitching at Petco Park. I'll take the Padres here and will sprinkle half unit on the F5 line as well.

ANALYSIS: The Athletics visit Texas after losing two of three against the Yankees in New York. On the mound for the Rangers will be veteran RHP Kyle Gibson, who has not surrendered more than three runs in any of his last 12 starts. Back the home underdog here as the Rangers bullpen locks it down.

ANALYSIS: Big number against a very capable Islanders team, but NYI is -175 on the puckline so that's not really much better value. The Lightning haven't lost back-to-back games in these playoffs. Tampa has just two losses in its past 80 games (going back a few seasons obviously) after scoring two goals or fewer in its previous game.

ANALYSIS: The Islanders went up 3-0 going into the third period in their last game only to give up two quick goals in third period. Had it not been for a miraculous goal line save the Lightning would have tied it up and sent it to OT. I don’t think the Lightning will start as slow as they did in the last game, and I also don’t think Semyon Varlamov can steal a game in Tampa Bay. Amalie Arena will be rockin and the Islanders have been worse on the road all season. Take the Lightning to go up 3-2.
