Reds to win, or lose by less than 1.5 runs vs. Pirates
Cincinnati takes on Pittsburgh ace Paul Skenes (6-7, 2.86 ERA), who continues to struggle with run support in his outings. He gave up just one run in five innings of work in his lone outing against the Reds this season. Andrew Abbott (5-4, 3.83 ERA) gets the call for the visitors, and was on the losing end of that game against the Pirates. He gave up four runs in 5 2/3 innings. The SportsLine model sees this game staying close as the Reds win, or loss by less than 1.5 runs, in 68% of simulations. You can make this trade on Kalshi at $0.56 per share.
Yankees to win vs. Red Sox
Boston took the first of this four-game set 6-3, but the Yankees are hoping their offense can come to life on Friday. New York will give the ball to Will Warren (7-2, 3.45 ERA), while Boston sends Payton Tolle (3-5, 3.08 ERA) to the bump. Tolle only gave up one run in his lone outing against the Yankees this year but New York still won that contest. The Yankees prevail on Friday in 54% of SportsLine simulations, and you can trade for them to win on Kalshi at $0.51 per share.

Cubs-Brewers more than 6.5 runs
Any time Jacob Misiorowski (8-3, 1.45 ERA) takes the mound for the Brewers, backing the opponent to score runs seems risky. The Cubs did not fare well against "The Miz" in his last outing, scoring zero runs across six innings. Colin Rea (5-5, 4.99 ERA) is making his first appearance against Milwaukee this season. Despite the Brewers ace taking the mound, the SportsLine model sees these teams combining for more than 7 runs in 74.4% of simulations. On Kalshi, you can trade for the Cubs and Brewers to get more than 6.5 runs at $0.59 per share.
Dodgers-Padres more than 7.5 runs
The Dodgers have a nine-game cushion on the Padres in the NL West and both teams enter this series on three-game winning streaks. Los Angeles will give the ball to Roki Sasaki (3-4, 4.76 ERA) while San Diego sends out Walker Buehler (4-3, 3.96 ERA), who used to star for the Dodgers. Despite San Diego's offensive struggles, the SportsLine model sees these teams getting more than 7.5 runs in 67.3% of simulations. You can make this trade for $0.53 per share on Kalshi.
