Tonight’s Action

Padres at Pirates, 6:35 ET

Odds: Padres -215, Pirates +180 || O/U 7.5

Pick: Righthander Joe Musgrove, who hurled the first no-hitter in Padres history in his last outing, is scheduled to face lefty Tyler Anderson for the Pirates. 

Sports Section likes Musgrove to keep it rolling against his former team. Take the Padres on the moneyline and bet the under.

Shoutout: Yesterday, we asked subscribers to predict the winner of Lightning-Predators, the score, and the top points-scorer. Nashville won 7-2, with Viktor Arvidsson and Roman Josi each piling up three points. 

No subscriber had the Predators thumping the Stanley Cup champs. It’s time for a rebound!

Keep the picks coming, everyone!
