Giants -115 over Rangers (loss)
Samardzija/Allard
The Rangers have been brutal this year. This is a team that is letting weaker hitting teams knock them around and when they do get a few runners on they will strike out or hit into a double play. There has been nothing solid from this team this year and you would expect this type of play from a team like the Giants, but they have been shockingly impressive to start the year. San Francisco has the pitching advantage and should grab the sweep today. Take the Giants.

Spurs +4.5 over Grizzlies (win)
The San Antonio Spurs picked up a nice win to start the NBA restart. This is one of the most familiar group of players in regards to playing together for a while. These guys all know each other dating back to at least last season so picking things back up won’t be as hard for them as teams that have shipped guys in and out of the lineup this year. Coach Popovich is still a capable coach when it comes to playoff setting basketball. There are not too many teams that this break helped, but this Spurs are one of them. Memphis has a young coach and as a young team might not be able to close out important games down the stretch. Take the Spurs.
