The Guardians have won the Central each of the last two years and three of the last four, while Chicago has lost 100+ games each of the last three seasons.

Orioles vs. Rangers: Orioles to win ($0.42)
The Orioles opted to sell at the trade deadline, but they enter Saturday just two games back of the Rangers for the third and final AL Wild Card spot. Texas took the series opener 2-1 on Saturday and is trying not just to improve its Wild Card standing, but also catch up to the Astros in the AL West race. Texas will send ace Jacob deGrom (7-7, 3.96 ERA) to the hill against Baltimore right-hander Kyle Bradish (7-10, 3.79 ERA). The model has Baltimore winning 41% of the time, and an O's win is 42 cents per share at Kalshi.

Astros vs. Padres: Astros to win ($0.48)
The Astros have taken control of the AL West thanks to some good play on their end and poor form from their rivals, and they won Friday's series opener over the Padres, who are now two games out of a National League Wild Card spot. San Diego is starting to shake off some cobwebs after a dreadful start to the year at the plate, but will it be enough? Peter Lamber (8-5, 3.06 ERA) starts Saturday's contest for Houston while the home side counters with Michael King (6-8, 3.45 ERA). The model has Houston winning 51% of the time, which is trading at 48 cents at Kalshi.

Dodgers vs. Diamondbacks: Diamondbacks to win or lose by fewer than 1.5 runs ($0.51)
The Dodgers are the two-time reigning champs and made a massive splash at the deadline in adding Tarik Skubal, but after losing to Arizona on a walkoff home run on Friday, L.A. has lost seven in a row. The Dodgers were swept by the Red Sox last weekend and the Cubs earlier this week, and the Diamondbacks, who hold one of three NL Wild Card spots, are trying to make it three sweeps of the Dodgers in a row. Brandon Pfaadt (6-1, 3.66 ERA) starts for Arizona against L.A.'s Yoshinobu Yamamoto (11-7, 2.76 ERA). Arizona wins or loses by fewer than 1.5 runs in 58% of the model's simulations, and that result is currently 51 cents per share at Kalshi.
