Milwaukee Brewers @ Chicago Cubs

8:05 p.m. ET

Sharp angle: Under (moved from 8.5 to 8)

Seventy-three percent of bettors are taking the over in this matchup, yet the total has fallen a half-run from its opening number. Sharps hit the under hard at 8.5, causing two steam moves and bringing the total down to 8.

New York Yankees @ Minnesota Twins

8:10 p.m. ET

Sharp angle: Under (moved from 9 to 8.5)

Although not quite as contrarian, this under has also received the minority of bets at 40%. Those bets have accounted for 48% of dollars, however, and a steam move from CRIS has helped bring this total down from 9 to 8.5.

Texas Rangers @ Los Angeles Angels

10:07 p.m. ET

Sharp angle: Rangers (moved from +120 to +117)

Despite only 27% of bettors on Texas, this line has gone its way. The Angels opened at -140 at BookMaker, but are now down to -129 as smart money has come in on the Rangers. Two steam moves on Texas have also contributed to the move.

Atlanta Braves @ San Francisco Giants

10:15 p.m. ET

Sharp angle: Giants (moved from +110 to +108)

In a similar spot, the Giants' line has dropped despite only 29% of bettors backing them tonight, indicating that sharp bettors are among that minority.

Sure enough, sharps at BetOnline triggered a steam move at +110, causing the entire market to reduce this line to its current number.
