Coach starts things off with the SportsLine play of the day: Over 7 runs in the Blue Jays-Rays game (7:10 p.m. ET). "The Blue Jays after a day off are 76 percent to the Over," he says.
Cimini has two plays from MLB. The first is the struggling Marlins (-132) to beat the Reds and pitcher Graham Ashcraft (6:40 p.m. ET). "One of their wins during this elongated losing streak came against Reds pitcher Graham Ashcraft," he says.
His second play is the Rangers (-120) to bounce back and beat former Texas pitcher Jordan Lyles and the Orioles (8:05 p.m. ET). "This is a tough spot for [Lyles]," he says.
O'Neill has one play: the Cardinals (-0.5) to cover the first five spread against the Cubs behind starter Adam Wainwright (7:45 p.m. ET). "[Wainwright] has a 2.01 ERA at home, and [the Cardinals] did win his start against the Cubs earlier this season," she says.
Coach has three Cash With Coach plays. The first is the Guardians (-145) to beat the Diamondbacks behind starter Triston McKenzie (7:10 p.m. ET). "I'll ride with the dude that is not giving up any runs," he says.
He also has two plays from the Dodgers-Giants game (9:45 p.m. ET): Dodgers (-135) to win the first five innings and the Dodgers (-145) on the moneyline. "Tyler Anderson is on the mound tonight, and you're going to give me the Dodgers less than -150? We're going to take this all day," he says.
Eimer closes out the show with three soccer plays: Both Teams To Score: Yes in the Ludogorets Razgrad-Dinamo Zagreb match (1:45 p.m. ET), Over 2.5 goals in the AS Monaco-PSV Eindhoven match (2 p.m. ET) and Both Teams To Score: Yes in the New York Red Bulls-Colorado Rapids match (7:30 p.m. ET).
