The Arizona Diamondbacks head into Citizens Bank Park for Saturday’s matchup against the Philadelphia Phillies after taking Friday’s opener 5-4, and that result matters because it changes the feel of the series without fully changing the market. Philadelphia still opens as the home favorite at -135, with Arizona coming back at +113 and the total sitting at 8.5. That is a fairly honest number.

New Orleans heads to TD Garden on Friday, April 10, 2026, for a 7:30 PM ET tip in a late-season regular-season matchup that looks lopsided on paper but still matters from a betting angle. The Pelicans come in at 26-54 after hanging 156 points on Utah in their last game, while Boston sits at 54-26 and second in the East despite a 112-106 loss to the Knicks on Thursday. NBCS will carry the game, and the market has Boston laying a massive 17 points with the total sitting at 224.
