Good morning Pickswise Nation, and welcome to another super Sunday of sports. We hope you got through a basketball-free Saturday with no issues because we have a HUGE Game 7 in Boston this afternoon. There’s also NHL, MLB, EPL and MLS soccer and NASCAR action today, so let’s get straight to making your next bet better.
About Last Night
Kraken force a Game 7
Everyone loves a Game 7 and we have another coming up in the NHL on Monday night after the Kraken beat the Stars 6-3 on Saturday, winning each period 2-1. We cashed our hockey player prop on the game.
YRFI/NRFI run goes on!
The Pickswise MLB team went 10-7 with their Saturday picks and our fantastic run with our YRFI/NRFI picks continued as another 2-0 day took our run to 19-5! The Yankees came back from 6-0 down to beat the Rays 9-8, while the Guardians scored 6 runs in the 8th inning to beat the Angels 8-6.

Best Bet of the Day
MLB: Boston Red Sox ML over St. Louis Cardinals
7:00 pm ET, ESPN
This Sunday Night Baseball matchup features two of the worst starting pitchers in Major League Baseball this season. Miles Mikolas of the Cardinals has posted a 5.40 ERA with a 5.99 xERA, while Boston’s Corey Kluber has posted a 6.29 ERA with a 5.73 xERA. Where the edge lies here is in the offenses and the bullpens. Boston will likely be at full strength on offense looking to avoid a home sweep and will have some high-leverage arms with great stuff available, such as Chris Martin and John Schreiber. The St. Louis pen has been worked in this series and may not be at full strength. Check out our full Cardinals vs Red Sox predictions.
