Angels -153
Analysis: Albert Pujols is on a tear, Shohei Ohtani has returned to a DH role, Tommy LaStella and David Fletcher have really thrived of late, and Mike Trout continues his reign as baseball's best player. The Halos' surge hasn't been a fluke. Another piece to the puzzle, heralded 22-year-old rookie Griffin Canning, has helped L.A. pick up wins in his first two starts and should help break out the brooms at Camden Yards to continue a fabulous two-week stretch. Ride Los Angeles.
Twins -1.5 runs
After splitting a double-header on Saturday, the Twins will look to take a third game in four tries to improve on the best record in baseball. Lefties Daniel Norris and Martin Perez will square off in this series finale, so it's definitely worth knowing that Minnesota has climbed up to second in all of baseball in OPS against southpaws with their work of late. With the hot Angels set to come into town next, the Twins are about to get a major test but will take care of business here first with another lopsided win. Ride the run-line to reduce the risk here.

PHILADELPHIA @ TORONTO | 5/12 | 7:00 PM EDT
YESTERDAY 10:30 AM
I'm looking for Kawhi Leonard to take over this game. Leonard won an NBA Finals with San Antonio, so he knows what it takes to win a big Game 7. I have Toronto rated the No. 1 team in the East, three points better than Philadelphia. The Sixers are night and day, home and away. Philly is 23-23 SU on the road while being outscored by 2.9 points per game. In Philly, the Sixers are 35-12, winning by 8.3 points per game. The difference is 11.2 points. Toronto's defense is No. 2 in the playoffs. Philadelphia wants to run, but the Raptors want to play half-court basketball. Toronto will control the pace, playing its game and frustrating the Sixers.

Maybe it'll make me end up looking like a fool, but I couldn't help but get the sense that Philly's 112-101 win over the Raptors in Game 6 was the team's last gasp effort to fight back, and I just don't trust the Sixers to have another performance like that in them. Honestly, I'm not sure that game as a result of Philly playing well as much as it was just Toronto laying an egg. I don't think Toronto will do that at home in Game 7.

Not counting Game 2 and its 187 points with brutal offense, and Game 3 and its 277 anf four OTs, every other game in this series have finished between 222 and 234 points. Yet the total continues to hang just under what these two teams averaged in the regular season. In all but the ugly Game 2, the winning team has had at least 116 points. I would expect a similar final score that we've seen several times before.

This has been a fun series to watch, but now it's time for Denver to prove it was the No. 2 seed in the West for a reason. The Nuggets were the toughest home team in the NBA, the Blazers finished just one game over .500 on the road. While it seems like every series has come down to the wire, four of the six games have been decided by seven points or more. I'll lay the points with the home Nuggets.

In every way is the Twins' offense better than the one the Tigers will put on the field. Against lefties -- each starts one Sunday -- Minnesota hits .292 with a huge .896 OPS compared to .206/.637 of Detroit. That's just the start. Tigers starter Daniel Norris hasn't gone more than five innings in any of his four starts and the Tigers have a bad bullpen, while Martin Perez is throwing as well as anyone in baseball right now. The money line price is high but Minnesota should win handily.

You're getting good value with Toronto in this game. The oddsmakers essentially have this as a pick 'em game, but my model says the Jays win this game more than 60 percent of the time. Toronto has won seven of its past 10 games against the White Sox and have been able to cool off the hot-hitting Jose Abreu, who was 0-for-5 with three strikeouts Saturday. Take Toronto.

Indians starter Jefry Rodriguez (0-2, 2.41 ERA) has pitched well in all three of his starts, allowing just five runs and striking out 12 in 18.2 innings. In addition, no player on Oakland's roster has ever faced him. Take the Indians.

Maybe it'll make me end up looking like a fool, but I couldn't help but get the sense that Philly's 112-101 win over the Raptors in Game 6 was the team's last gasp effort to fight back, and I just don't trust the Sixers to have another performance like that in them. Honestly, I'm not sure that game as a result of Philly playing well as much as it was just Toronto laying an egg. I don't think Toronto will do that at home in Game 7.

We head into the final game of this series with the home team going 4-2 both straight up and ATS, and I expect that trend will continue in the finale. The Nuggets have been terrific at home all season, and in the playoffs, going 29-19 ATS overall, and 27-18 ATS as a home favorite. The Blazers, meanwhile, are only 11-18 ATS as a road underdog.

I'm looking for Kawhi Leonard to take over this game. Leonard won an NBA Finals with San Antonio, so he knows what it takes to win a big Game 7. I have Toronto rated the No. 1 team in the East, three points better than Philadelphia. The Sixers are night and day, home and away. Philly is 23-23 SU on the road while being outscored by 2.9 points per game. In Philly, the Sixers are 35-12, winning by 8.3 points per game. The difference is 11.2 points. Toronto's defense is No. 2 in the playoffs. Philadelphia wants to run, but the Raptors want to play half-court basketball. Toronto will control the pace, playing its game and frustrating the Sixers.
