Today's Best Bets

Here are today's best bets.

MLB Best Bets

Detroit Tigers (+128) vs. Chicago White Sox (-152) | 8.5 (-112/-108)

The White Sox took care of business in last night's series opener when they beat the Tigers 3-0 on the southside. The divisional foes are back at it this afternoon, and we have a pitching matchup between Michael Lorenzen and Dylan Cease. First pitch is scheduled for 2:10 p.m. ET from Guaranteed Rate Field in Chicago, IL.

Both of these hurlers threw in last weekend's series when these two teams faced off. Lorenzen pitched in the Saturday game and limited the Sox to just two unearned runs on two hits and a walk over 6.2 innings of work. Cease wasn't nearly as sharp in his Sunday outing, where he gave up four earned runs on four hits and four walks over 4.0 innings pitched. 

I'm locking in the under in this spot. I'm still expecting Cease to put everything together and return at least somewhere close to his 2022 form, where he finished second in Cy Young voting. He'll have an excellent opportunity against a Tigers team that's just 26th in team batting average (.230) and 28th in OPS (.660). Furthermore, with the injury to Riley Greene, Detroit's best hitter at .296, I believe this offense is going to take another step back. I'm expecting another low-scoring affair today - give me the under!

Bet: Under 8.5 (-108)

NHL Best Bets

Matthew Tkachuk OVER 3.5 Shots On Goal (-105)

Do the Panthers have a little more of that magic? They went from just sneaking into the playoffs to now just four wins from hoisting Lord Stanley.

This team has had two key players lead them on this run. First is goalie Sergei Bobrovsky, who wasn't the starter at the beginning of this playoff run but has been a star since stepping in between the pipes. He's coming into this series with a 2.21 GAA and 3.28 wins above replacement.

On the offensive side, it's been all Matthew Tkachuk. He led the team in points during the regular season and has continued that trend in the playoffs, which included three game-winning goals in the Eastern Conference Finals. Look out for him to be the driving force again as he tries to lead his team to a title, and he'll look to be aggressive at the net.

WNBA Best Bets

Los Angeles Sparks vs. Seattle Storm

Both of these teams are struggling, which makes this game one of the games to read tonight. The Sparks are 2-2 with two wins against the Mercury. Los Angeles can score points consistently but is one of the worst defensive teams. That means the Storm will score points against the Sparks tonight.

I know the Storm do not have a win yet this season, but I like them to get their first win tonight. The Storm have had a challenging schedule, playing the Liberty and Aces. Those are the two best teams in the WNBA. Tonight they play a lesser-talent team. The Storm also has Jewell Loyd, who is playing great basketball and averaging 26 points per game. That gives the Storm the advantage tonight. 

Seattle Storm Moneyline (+205)
