Rotation # 537
Warriors +2.5 over Rockets (win)
The oddsmakers made a very sharp line for tonight’s game seven. We will go with the underdog Warriors because Steve Kerr is the better coach, the Warriors are the more veteran team, and they have a much better bench. Both teams are outstanding on the defensive end. I like the Warrior’s ability to turn teams over much better. Stephen Curry is one of the best ball handlers in the league and should be the difference offensively in this game. Take the Warriors.

Rotation # 920
Red Sox -1.5 runs over Twins -105 (loss)
Crochet/Paddack
Minnesota has hit left-handed pitching poorly this season, and it won’t get easier today against Red Sox starter Garrett Crochet. Crochet was an all-star last year and is putting up better numbers this year. The Red Sox are a good home team and should be able to knock out struggling Minnesota starter Chris Paddack early. The money line is too high. Let’s take the run line. Take the Red Sox -1.5 runs -105
