This series is now tied 2-2 after the Stars pulled out the win in their last game. Joe Pavelski scored with 12 seconds left in the game to tie it, then the Stars won in OT. However, the Flames have been the better team this series and Ben Bishop isn’t playing. Look for the Flames to keep the lead in this game as they should have last game.

The Tigers have lost six straight games while the White Sox have won two straight. Dylan Cease faced the Tigers earlier this season throwing six innings and giving up one earned run. He is 4-0 with a 2.86 ERA in four career starts against the Tigers. Tarik Skubal, MLB’s 50th overall prospect, will be making his Major League debut for the Tigers but the highest level he has pitched at is Double A. The White Sox have the fifth highest OPS in the league against lefties while these teams have even bullpens, take the White Sox at home.

Austin Voth has faced this Braves team three times already in his short career and he has never given up more than two earned runs. Josh Tomlin will slide back into the ailing rotation for the Braves, although he will not be able to pitch very deep. The Braves have the fifth best bullpen in the league with a 3.16 ERA, but they will be stretched very thin today. Take the value in the Nats.

Masahiro Tanaka is 10-4 with a 3.07 ERA in 19 career starts against the Rays and he pitched well against them last season throwing three quality starts in four appearances. Blake Snell faced the Yankees 11 days ago but he only pitched three innings. The Yankees are injured but they seem to be fine considering their backups have had so much playing time as of late. Take the Yankees at home with plus value.

Frankie Montas will be pitching on extra rest and he is 2-1 with a 1.57 ERA this season. The Athletics have the second-best bullpen in the league with a 2.34 ERA this season while the Dbacks have the 21st ranked bullpen with a 5.00 ERA.
INDIANA +4
MIAMI @ INDIANA | 8/18 | 4:00 PM EDT
The Heat and Pacers are evenly matched and have a similar composition that relies on depth behind multiple solid role players and the ability to play defense when needed. The Pacers are slightly better with the latter, and have played better in the bubble although one of their two losses came against the Heat. Even so, this should be an ultra-tight series and the advantage lies in taking the points.
