The sharp read on today's slate: pitching matchups with a real edge, the league's hottest bats and arms, and the full division picture. Tap any matchup box for the complete game breakdown.

Lineups drive everything here. We don't post a pick until the official lineup is out, and that's usually an hour or two before first pitch. The first picks hit about an hour before the day's first game, then more roll in as the slate fills. Check back throughout the day.

Every pick is locked to the price shown before first pitch, then graded on the game result. 1 unit risked per play; underdog units pay the moneyline price.
