This is a play on the MINNESOTA TWINS as part of our MLB Wednesday Double Play. Minnesota has been red hot as it was on a 13-1 run prior to the series opening loss last night in a 10-6 defeat where the Twins allowed eight runs overs the final two innings. Seattle is 14-6 over its last 20 games to get to four games over .500 and is overvalued on the road here where it is a game over .500. Chris Paddack is working his way back from nearly two years after Tommy John surgery so his 4.78 ERA and 4.59 xERA are typical lines at this point. But the progress is there as his velocity is back to his pre-injury averages while his command is also back with a 4.9 percent walk rate. He has only one really bad start which came at Baltimore where he allowed nine runs but that was against one of the best offenses in baseball. George Kirby is back into form after a rough start as he has posted a 0.50 ERA and 0.72 WHIP over his last three starts and he comes in as the favorite based on that but we fell there is not a huge difference between these two at this point. 10* (972) Minnesota Twins

This is a play on the NEW YORK YANKEES as part of our MLB Wednesday Double Play. The Yankees exploded for 10 runs last night in a 10-3 win for its fourth straight victory to remain in a tie for first place in the American League East, trailing the Orioles by just percentage points. They are favored a little more tonight after facing Justin Verlander last night and have a much better edge tonight. It has been a miserable start for Houston which fell to 12-23 on the season which is only better than the White Sox for the worst record in the American League. They are 5-11 on the road with the offense being dismal, averaging only 3.9 rpg and hitting just .237. Spencer Arrighetti has been making spot starts because of the ravaged Astros starting rotation and is has been mixed. He has been ok at home but the road has been a disaster where he has a 14.84 ERA and 2.85 WHIP in two starts at the Royals and Cubs. Carlos Rodon is coming off a bad start at Baltimore where it has been tough for most pitchers but he still has a 3.19 ERA through seven starts and he has yet to allowed an earned run at home over 13 innings. 10* (970) New York Yankees

This is a play on the INDIANA PACERS for our NBA Signature Enforcer. Indiana will come into Game Two with a chip on its shoulder after some questionable late calls going against them in Game One and them speaking about it publicly. The Pacers have relied on scoring all season and they are averaging 113.6 ppg in the postseason. Indiana is only turning the ball over 9.6 times per game which is the least of all playoff teams but the one factor that has hurt is that the Pacers are shooting just 72.2 percent from the free throw line in the postseason which is a huge drop-off from its 78.2 percent slip during the regular season but we will see the playoff percentage get better. Indiana is 17-8 ATS revenging a same season loss this season. The Knicks got the calls but it cannot be understated how much Jalen Brunson has meant to this team as he has scored 39 or more points in five straight games and he shot a playoff high 53.8 percent in Game One so we should see some regression. In four meetings, the Knicks have a pair of four-point wins and a pair of losses against the Pacers so we can expect to see another one to two possession game either way. Here, we play against home favorites after going over the total by 24 or more points total in their last three games going up against an opponent after going over the total by 42 or more points total in their last five games. This situation is 89-57 ATS (61 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (561) Indiana Pacers
