    Coach starts things off with the SportsLine play of the day: Over 7 runs in the Yankees-Mariners game (10:10 p.m. ET). "One hundred percent of the time, when these two teams play this season, [the Over] cashes," he says.

    Eimer has three soccer plays. The first is Both Teams To Score: Yes (-110) in the Dinamo Zagreb-Razgrad match (2 p.m. ET). "These are still the only two teams that have scored in every single leg of this competition," he says.

    His second play is the Rangers first half team total to go Over 0.5 goals (-125) against Union Saint-Gilloise (2:45 p.m. ET). "This team loves to score at home," he says.

    His final play is Benfica (-130) to beat Midtjylland (1:45 p.m. ET). "Benfica won the first leg, 4-1, and Midtjylland was lucky to score or really just get any shots," he says.

    Coach has two Cash With Coach plays. The first is the Mets (-1.5) to cover against the Reds (7:10 p.m. ET). "We got Carlos Carrasco on the mound," he says. "He has been lights-out."

    He also likes the Braves (-0.5) to cover the first five run line against the Red Sox (7:10 p.m. ET). "This is all about the starting pitchers for me," he says.

    Cimini has two receiver props for the upcoming NFL season. The first is Under 550.5 receiving yards for Buccaneers receiver Julio Jones. "What we've seen with Julio Jones is his body just can't hold up in an NFL regular season anymore," he says.

    His second play is Over 850.5 receiving yards for Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. "[Quarterback] Jared Goff was eyeing him every target [that] final stretch of last year," he says.

    Hartstein closes out the show with a play from MLB: the Cardinals (-0.5) to cover the first five run line against the Rockies (8:40 p.m. ET). "The St. Louis Cardinals are red-hot, [having won] seven in a row," he says.
