LocksMLB (0.5 Unit) New York Yankees Team Total Over 5.5 (+105; Odds via Caesars): 6:10 PM CT on YESThat stretch of futility out of the Yankee bats was really strange, especially the scoreless innings streak. I have a feeling some of that is still lingering with them, but typically this season, the cure for what ails the Yankees has been facing a lefthanded starter. That’s what they’ll get today in Nick Lodolo, and there are a couple of things working in New York’s favor.

LocksNBA (0.75 Unit) Indiana Pacers @ OKC Thunder -3.5 First Quarter (-110; Odds via Caesars): 7:00 PM CT on ABCIf there’s one last NBA game this season, then I’m going down swinging with one of the better trends on the year. The Thunder have been the best first quarter team all season, with a plus-5.0 average margin in home games. They’ve won the first quarter in their home games of this series by margins of 6, 9, and 10, while also dominating the first quarter in the other rounds.

LocksMLB (0.5 Unit) Texas Rangers/Pittsburgh Pirates Over 8.5 (-110; Odds via Caesars): 3:05 PM CT on FS1This is really a gut pick for me based on the weather and what I think these starting pitchers are capable of allowing. It’s ideal hitting conditions at PNC Park today with warm temperatures and the wind blowing out, which should give a boost to these normally dysfunctional offenses.

LocksMLB (0.5 Unit) Milwaukee Brewers/Minnesota Twins First 5 Innings Under 4 (-110; Odds via BetMGM): 7:10 PM CT on Fanduel Sports WIThe top pitching prospect for Milwaukee is up in the big leagues and gets his second career start tonight. Jacob Misiorowski is a scary one too, with nasty stuff from an unusual delivery as the Cardinals found out last week in not even managing a hit against him.

LocksNBA (0.75 Unit) Indiana Pacers 1st Half Team Total Over 54.5 (-110; Odds via Caesars): 7:30 PM CT on ABCIt’s obviously do or die for Indiana here, and so I would expect their best effort coming into this game. Even potentially without Tyrese Haliburton, this offense is still a dangerous, high-octane one, and might actually flow better without a hobbled and struggling Haliburton. There’s just something different about the OKC defense on the road too, even in a closeout scenario tonight.
