The Islanders opened this series with a hard fought win at Tampa Bay, 2-1. The Lightning then took game two on their home ice, 4-2. The venue shifted to the Islanders home ice where they lost 1-2. This whole series has been low scoring and I look for that to continue here today. I also look for the Islanders to get the win and even this series at 2-2. Look for a low scoring game and an Islanders win. Play NY Islanders.

The San Francisco Giants ran their win streak to five games and have won seven of their last 10 games. They still have a 2.5-game lead in the NL West over the Dodgers and the Padres have fallen six games back. The Phillies are in 2nd place in the NL East, 4.5-games back of the division leading Mets. The Phillies will start Aaron Nola here today. Nola has a 5-4 record and 3.69 ERA this season. He's a bit worse on the road with a 4.99 ERA. Alex Wood starts for the Giants. Wood is 6-3 with a 3.71 ERA. I'm sticking with the hot Giants and Wood here today. Play San Francisco.

The Milwaukee Brewers are just one game back of AL Central leading Chicago Cubs. They are this close despite losing five straight games. The Colorado Rockies have won five straight games, but still sit in 4th in the NL West 15.5-games back of the Giants. Adrian Houser starts today for the Brewers. Houser is only 4-5 but has a nice 3.77 ERA on the season. Houser has allowed two runs or fewer in six of his last seven starts. Austin Gomber toes the rubber for the Rockies today. Gomber is 6-5 on the season with a 3.54 ERA. He's been outstanding at home, going 3-1 with a 0.95 ERA. Expect a low scoring contest here tonight. Play UNDER.

Game 7 here today between the Bucks and the Nets from Brooklyn. The Bucks staved off elimination at home in a game 6 blowout win, 104-89. The Nets won the first two games of this series and then have lost three of the last four games. However, the Nets have not lost at home and today they are just a 1 1/2 to 2 point favorite so they need to do little more than win. The Nets will have to win without one of their Big Three in the lineup. Kyrie Irving looks to miss this game with an ankle injury. Even without Irving, I like the Nets to hold home court and win the series today. Play Brooklyn.
