Cubs -136

STL is 1-6 last 7 and haven’t hit LHP very well all yr and with Imanaga being a lefty and is 2-1 2.84 vs STL I will take the CUBS hoping they will start to turn it around after beating Skenes

Guardians -120

An opener and a struggling Brayan Bello does not bode well for Boston.

Seattle -156

Hurricanes -1.5. This series has been over. The last couple of games have been a complete domination by the Hurricanes and I expect them to close it out with a big win at home tonight.

MLB

TB -170

Tampa Bay has a huge edge on the mound tonight with Nick Martinez carrying a sparkling 1.51 ERA and 4-1 record into the matchup, while Walbert Ureña has pitched well but still brings more traffic concerns and a much less proven track record against a lineup as disciplined as the Rays. The Angels come in off a nice stretch, but Tampa remains one of the best teams in baseball at 34-19 and is returning home after a rough road swing where several losses came by a single run. The Rays also own the deeper bullpen and a significant edge in overall run prevention, which becomes even more important in a game projected to be low scoring. With the better starter, better roster, and home field advantage, Tampa is in a strong position to bounce back and take care of business tonight.

1.5* Carolina -238 7pm/ or (-145 3-way)

Carolina is 16-3 SU in its last 19 games at home.
Montreal is 3-13 SU in its last 16 games when playing on the road against Carolina.

Playoffs Record: Hurricanes Goalie: Frederik Andersen (11-1, .928 SV%, 1.44 GAA)

Philadelphia Phillies +100
Phillies starter Wheeler has been great since returning from injury with a 1.67 ERA
Phillies have won four of their last five games
Phillies play well on the road with a 15-11 as visitors
Phillies are 20-8 since Don Mattingly took over as coach

Carolina Hurricanes -1.5 (+120)

This entire series has felt lopsided. The Hurricanes winning on the road was no surprise since I don't think they have lost away from home all playoffs. This feels like a formality and tune up to get ready for the Knights. The Canadiens may just take this one on the chin.

MLB

916 Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay is 12-1 as a home favorite
Tampa Bay is 19-5 at home
Tampa Bay is 18-6 at home on the run line
LA Angels are 8-13 as a road dog
LA Angels are 10-19 away SU

Twins +120

Minnesota starts Taj Bradley who’s 5-1, a 2.77 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP in 52 innings pitched. Those are some good stats. He takes on Jared Jones who missed all of 2025 with an injury and is now making his first start for Pittsburgh this season. I’ll take the know good pitcher for some pitching for the first time in over 18 months in MLB.
