TAMPA BAY @ BALTIMORE | 05/20 | 12:35 PM EDT
TAMPA BAY -157
ANALYSIS: The Orioles are 0-20 as a dog of +140 or more off a game as a favorite when playing a team that has a better record and it is before the All-Star break. The Rays are 7-0 as a favorite of more than -110 after a game in which they had multiple multiple-run innings.

SAN FRANCISCO @ CINCINNATI | 05/20 | 12:35 PM EDT
CINCINNATI -135
ANALYSIS: The Giants are resting their best hitter in catcher Buster Posey as well as sitting regulars Mike Tauchman, Donovan Solano and Brandon Belt in a getaway game. San Francisco is looking for its first sweep in Cincinnati since 1999. Still, that watered-down lineup should be enough for Cincinnati to prevail at home behind Tyler Mahle (2-1, 2.93). The Giants are starting four lefty hitters and they bat just .160 off Mahle even though he's right-handed. He ranks ninth in the National League in strikeouts per 9 innings (10.88) and 15th in ERA.

PITTSBURGH @ N.Y. ISLANDERS | 05/20 | 7:00 PM EDT
N.Y. ISLANDERS -115
ANALYSIS: The Islanders had just four regulation home losses this season, while Pittsburgh was only three games above .500 away from the Igloo. The Pens probably will be without the injured Evgeni Malkin again, and even if the future Hall of Famer plays he clearly won't be 100 percent considering he hasn't played since May 8. There will be a true home-ice advantage, too, as rowdy Nassau Coliseum will be allowed to host a season-high 50 percent of fans (6,250).

MONTREAL @ TORONTO | 05/20 | 7:30 PM EDT
TORONTO -200
ANALYSIS: Wishing I had jumped on this a day or two ago when it was below -200. Are you aware Toronto hasn't beaten Montreal in a playoff game since clinching the 1967 Stanley Cup Finals? Crazy. That will end Thursday in the opener between the teams -- no fans. The Habs are pretty clearly the worst team in the postseason with the fewest points and a negative goal differential. Three of their best players, led by Carey Price, haven't played in several weeks due to injury. Both teams might be rusty overall with about a week off each, but Toronto will eventually take care of business.
