Three bets anchor a playoff-minded Monday slate: Diamondbacks-Giants both teams to score 3+ runs, Yankees team total over 4.5 on the road, and Nationals-Braves both teams to score 3+ runs. Each wager leans on late-season forms, park quirks, and bullpen depth, with 1-unit plays and promos tied to DK, Caesars, and BetMGM.

These bets blend offense-driven angles with bullpen volatility at critical junctures, delivering value for savvy fantasy bettors eyeing run production and innings. Stay mindful of lineup shifts and travel fatigue as the chase for postseason spots intensifies.

Tarik Skubal escaped a scare with left-side tightness, and imaging showed no structural damage. The Tigers expect him to take the mound again Thursday against Cleveland, preserving Detroit's postseason pursuit with 12 games left. Skubal's season has featured Cy Young-type dominance, and his return would fortify Detroit's rotation and boost fantasy rosters counting on heavy innings from a true ace.

With a 2.26 ERA and 224 strikeouts in 29 starts, the 28-year-old has been a cornerstone for Detroit. His health is pivotal for October plans and for fantasy managers prioritizing volume and wins down the stretch.
