This is a play on the DETROIT PISTONS for our NBA Signature Enforcer. Detroit took the first two games of this series and had covered four in a row before the Cavaliers pulled away late on Saturday to get back into the series. Cleveland was down late and the game was tied inside three minutes with the Cavaliers taking a 106-104 lead with 2:28 remaining and they were able to hang on. Cleveland shot 58 percent from the floor and still needed a late push to get the win and they are not going to replicate that shooting tonight so they will need to get it done from help in other ways. One that will not happen will be on the glass as the Pistons have outrebounded Cleveland on the offensive end in all three games and by a combined 45-25. The Cavaliers came through for us Saturday and will go the other way with a line that has actually gone down and we will back the fact Detroit is 21-4 this season when playing teams with winning percentages between .600 and .750. 10* (509) Detroit Pistons

This is a play on the ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS as part of our MLB Monday Double Play. We played against Texas yesterday with the value on the Cubs against Jacob deGrom and he did not give in but we will fade the Rangers again. Nathan Eovaldi has made eight starts and has been absolutely dominant in half of those with a 0.96 ERA over 28 innings including the last two against the Yankees so we could see some letdown because of that. In the other four starts, he has an 8.69 ERA over 19.2 innings so it is anyone’s guess what we will get here. Arizona took the final two games against the Mets to close a 3-3 homestand and the Diamondbacks hit the road with Michael Soroka who has shown a resurgence after some tough seasons and dealing with injuries. He has a 4.14 ERA which is average but he had one bad start in Milwaukee where he allowed eight runs and take that out and his ERA drops to 2.38 in his other six starts. 10* (911) Arizona Diamondbacks

This is a play on the HOUSTON ASTROS as part of our MLB Monday Double Play. Seattle lost two of three against the White Sox with the two losses over the weekend scoring two runs. Houston lost two of three against the Reds with the two losses over the weekend scoring one run. Something has to give. The Mariners remain on the road where they are 7-11 and are the favorites with George Kirby on the hill as he has been dealing with a 2.53 ERA over his last five starts and he hits the road where he has a 3.32 ERA and in his career, his road ERA is one run higher than it is at home. Peter Lambert is being overshadowed as he is pitching excellent after posting a miserable 6.28 ERA in 74 games including 35 starts with the Rockies so take any pitcher out of Colorado and they can flourish. After an average opener, he has a 1.04 ERA over his last three starts including seven shutout innings over the Dodgers last time out. 10* (910) Houston Astros
