Monday 5: highest-conviction plays across NBA, NHL, MLB

Five plays I'd actually fire tonight

The Monday slate has 3 NBA Game 2s, 2 NHL Game 2s, and 7 MLB games. That's a lot of noise. Here are the 5 I have the most conviction on - ranked by edge, not by what looks flashy.

1. Phillies F5 -0.5 @ Cubs (+100 or better) · 2u · TOP PLAY *7:40 PM ET, Wrigley Field*

Cristopher Sanchez is on the mound: 2-1, 2.01 ERA, 31 K in 22.1 IP. His F5 ERA this season is 1.20. Translation: through 5 innings he's near-untouchable.
