San Francisco at San Diego 7:15 ET Giants over Padres- I find this one a bit strange as the struggling Giants opened a favorite at San Diego and the weird part about it is that the Padres are sending Yu Darvish (7-3, 3.53 ERA) to the hill. The Giants will send Carlos Rodon (7-5, 2.87) out to start and he is off his longest stint of the season. After a terrible stretch the Giants have won their last two and seem to have regained this their confidence. Take SAN FRANCISCO! |

Maybe not so much on defense where they rank No. 7 allowing 393 YPG but Edmonton is the worst in the league allowing 420 TPG. On offense is where the difference is pronounced as The Stampeders gain 391.3 ranking No. 2 while once again the Elks are dead last gaining just 318 YPG.

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats play host to the Edmonton Elks on Friday night as both teams have yet to tally a win this season. Something has to give for one of them under the lights at Tim Hortons Field. Through a series of unfortunate circumstances the Elks and Tiger-cats meet this week with matching and disappointing 0-3 records. The obvious good news here is that someone is walking out of this Canada Day encounter at 1-3, barring a tie, of course. The Tiger-cats have shown in bright bursts what they’re capable of this year, but haven’t been able to string it together for a full game yet. After the Elks’ Week 1 blowout loss to the Lions, they’ve shown steady improvement since, holding a fourth-quarter lead over Saskatchewan in Week 2 and were in control against Calgary in Week 3 until the third quarter. With the Tiger-cats at home, the pressure is more on them to get the win this week. Take EDMONTON! |

It will be the 13th start of his rookie season, already his third against the Brewers. In two starts against the Arizona Diamondbacks and St. Louis Cardinals, Greene overpowered opposing hitters.

Lifetime, Lauer is 1-4 with a 4.25 ERA in eight career games (seven starts) against the Reds, including 0-2 with a 4.20 ERA in three appearances in 2021.

L.A. Angels at Seattle 10:10 ET Mariners over Angels- Shohei Ohtani (4-4, 3.64 ERA) is scheduled to start the series opener against Mariners rookie right-hander George Kirby (1-1, 3.65), who will face the Angels for the first time. Ohtani, who hit a two-run homer and allowed just one run in seven innings to help the Angels end their losing streak last week, is 2-0 with a 2.37 ERA in three career starts against Seattle. However, they stumbled through a 14-game losing streak -- and the team fired manager Joe Maddon after the first 12 defeats in that stretch. The Angels snapped that skid on June 9 but have gone 1-4 since and have scored just two runs total over their past three games. The Angels are 7-19 following a loss and 5-16 in their last 21 games against right handed starters while the Mariners are 7-1 following a loss. Take SEATTLE! |

Golden State at Boston 9:00 ET Celtics (+) over Warriors- The Warriors still moved one victory away from a championship with a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series, despite shooting 9 of 40 (22.5 percent) from distance as a team. Curry went 0 of 9. A determined mindset won't be exclusive to the Warriors, of course. Boston heads home keen on extending the series to a Game 7 back on the West Coast. A championship would give Boston an 18th banner to hang in the rafters, which would be the most all-time. They are tied with the Los Angeles Lakers at 17 championships apiece, but they have not won one since 2008. With their backs to the wall the Celtics deliver. Take BOSTON! |

Cleveland at Colorado 8:40 ET Rockies over Protectors- Cleveland's Konnor Pilkington (1-0, 3.57 ERA) is in the Cleveland rotation and faces a tough task for his fifth career start. The left-hander will take the ball on Wednesday when the Guardians continue their three-game series at the Colorado Rockies in Denver. Left-hander Austin Gomber (3-6, 6.17) will start for the Rockies. Gomber had a bounce-back performance in his last start at San Francisco on Thursday. He allowed two runs on five hits in six innings to earn his first victory in more than a month. Gomber had allowed 17 runs in 6 1/3 innings in his previous two starts. He is slated to make his first career start against the Guardians but he has logged three relief appearances against them. Gomber hasn't recorded a decision but has a 2.70 ERA in 3 1/3 innings against Cleveland. The Guardians are 1-8 in their last nine at Colorado. Take ROCKIES! |

San Diego at Chicago Cubs 8:05 ET Cubs over Padres- Chicago has dropped eight straight games while the Padres have won their last five and yet here are the Cubs favored. The Padres have never started better, as they are also 22-11 on the road but are just 2-5 in their last seven trips to Wrigley Field and 3-8 in the last 11 meetings overall. The Cubs will give touted prospect Caleb Kilian (0-0 5.40 ERA) a second major league start in this contest. The Padres are expected to call up Ryan Weathers from Triple-A El Paso to make his 2022 debut. The left-hander pitched in 30 games (18 starts) for San Diego last season, when he made his big-league debut, and went 4-7 with a 5.32 ERA. Weathers, 3-4 with a 7.29 ERA in 12 minor league starts this season, allowed seven runs and 12 hits over 10 innings while going 1-1 in two starts against the Cubs in 2021. Take CHICAGO CUBS. |

Tampa Bay at N.Y. Yankees 7:05 ET Rays/Yankees UNDER- Very rarely do I play a regular season total in MLB but this matchup of lefties has me looking forward to one of those pitching duels that you will able to talk about. I'll start with Tampa Bay who have one of the worst hitting lineups in the AL and they will be facing 'Nasty' Nestor Cortes (5-2, 1.96 ERA) who has one of the best hits (45) to innings (64.3) pitched with 71 strike outs and only 14 walks in 11 starts. The Rays will send Shane McClanahan (7-2, 1.87) who has been just as effective as Cortes surrendering just 43 hits in 72.3 innings with 98 K's and just 13 walks. Both these guys will be playing in the All-Star game and tonight you will see why. Free swinging Yankees will be all or nothing and I just don't see it and the Rays just stink on offense.

Boston at Golden State 9:00 ET Celtics (+) over Warriors- Although the series is even at two games apiece I get the feeling that most believe Golden State has a decided edge. An edge maybe but the series is still at 2-2 a slight edge maybe because of home court and Stephen Curry. The Celtics have gone 8-3 on the road in the postseason, outshooting their opponents 38.1 percent to 31.2 percent on 3-pointers. The Warriors have gone 10-1 at home, hitting 40.7 percent of their threes as opposed to 36.3 percent by the visitors. The biggest factor in determining winners and losers in the series has been rebounding. Boston has held the upper hand on the boards 86-70 in its two wins, including 22-18 on the offensive end.

Boston at Oakland 4:05 ET A's over Red Sox- Oakland right-hander Paul Blackburn (5-1, 2.15 ERA), who has never faced the Red Sox was 5-0 with a 1.70 ERA in first nine starts this year before allowing a season-high four runs in 6 2/3 innings in a 5-1 home loss to the Houston Astros on Monday in his last outing. The A's, who have won just 20 games all season, are 8-2 in Blackburn's starts. Boston is scheduled to counter with its hottest pitcher -- right-hander Nick Pivetta (4-4, 3.95) -- as it goes for a third consecutive win. Pivetta has won his last four starts and is unbeaten in his last five, having allowed six runs in 34 innings over that stretch. He has been supported by 40 runs in the four wins. The A's are 40-19 in the last 59 meetings at home against Boston. Take OAKLAND |
