San Francisco Giants vs Los Angeles Dodgers Picks and Predictions April 23rd 2026
The Dodgers head into Thursday afternoon at Oracle Park trying to avoid a three-game sweep after dropping the first two games of this NL West set, including Wednesday’s 3-0 loss. Los Angeles is 16-8 and tied for first in the division, while San Francisco is 11-13 and sitting fourth, five games back. First pitch is scheduled for 3:45 p.m. ET, with SportsNet LA, NBC Sports Bay Area, and MLB.TV carrying the broadcast. The pitching matchup is Tyler Glasnow against Logan Webb, which, on paper, still gives Los Angeles the cleaner starting edge. This game is interesting because the recent series results and the season-long profiles point in slightly different directions. The Giants have won the first two games and have

Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees Picks and Predictions April 23rd 2026
The Yankees go into Thursday night at Fenway Park looking for a sweep and trying to keep their five-game win streak alive. New York is 15-9 and sits first in the AL East, while Boston is 9-15 and last in the division. First pitch is scheduled for 6:10 p.m. EDT, and the listed coverage includes YES, NESN+ and FS1. This is the third meeting of the season, and New York has taken the first two by a combined 8-1 score. The pitching setup is a little different than it looked earlier in the week. Cam Schlittler gets the ball for New York with a 2-1 record, 1.95 ERA, 0.76 WHIP and 36 strikeouts, while Boston is now expected to call

New York Mets vs Minnesota Twins Picks and Predictions April 23rd 2026
Minnesota heads into Thursday’s series finale at Citi Field looking to grab the road series and get back above .500. The Twins are 12-12, while the Mets are 8-16 after finally snapping their 12-game losing streak with a 3-2 win on Wednesday. First pitch is set for 7:10 p.m. ET in Queens, with Joe Ryan lined up for Minnesota and Christian Scott making his first major league start since 2024 for New York. This is one of those games where the starting-pitching conversation really does drive the whole handicap. Ryan has been sharp, efficient, and hard to square up. Scott is interesting, no doubt, but he is still returning from Tommy John surgery and stepping into a bad spot against

Texas Rangers vs Pittsburgh Pirates Picks and Predictions April 23rd 2026
Pittsburgh closes out its trip to Arlington on Thursday night with a chance to win the series after Wednesday’s 8-4 comeback. The Pirates come in at 14-10 and sit third in the NL Central, while Texas is 12-12 and second in the AL West. First pitch is set for 8:05 p.m. ET at Globe Life Field, with SportsNet Pittsburgh and Rangers Sports Network carrying the broadcast. The pitching matchup is an interesting one too: Bubba Chandler for Pittsburgh against Jacob deGrom for Texas. This game is pretty easy to frame from a betting perspective. Pittsburgh has been the slightly better all-around club through 24 games, posting a .335 OBP with 27 homers, while Texas has leaned more on pitching and

Ottawa Senators vs Carolina Hurricanes Picks and Predictions April 23rd 2026
The math is very simple for the Ottawa Senators as they prepare to host the Carolina Hurricanes in Game 3 of their Eastern Conference quarterfinal series on Thursday night. Ottawa trails the series 2-0, and only four times in NHL history has a team come back from down 3-0 to win a playoff series. The last occurred in 2014 when the Los Angeles Kings rallied to stun the San Jose Sharks. The Senators fell behind the Toronto Maple Leafs 2-0 in the first round last April before falling in six games. “We feel a lot better than being down 2-0 last year,” Ottawa forward Drake Batherson said on Wednesday. “We’ve got a lot of confidence. We’re excited to get in
