Detroit at LA Angels
The Tigers have lost three of their last four, but should get a shot in the arm with Mike Maroth on the mound tonight. Detroit has won all three of Maroth's starts this season, including road wins at Kansas City and Toronto. Overall the Tigers have won four of their last six away from home. Angels' starter Jered Weaver is still trying to come back from biceps tendinitis and took the loss in his first outing of the season against Oakland (4-1) on Tuesday. Detroit looks like a good underdog pick (+145) in this one according to Dunkel, which has the Tigers favored straight up by 2. Dunkel Pick: Detroit (+145). Here are all of today's games.

Orlando at Detroit
Despite being an eight seed with a losing record, the Magic showed little intimidation in traveling to Detroit for Game One. Orlando kept it close for most of the game before losing by eight (100-92), pushing their record to 4-1 against the spread in their last five road games. The Pistons continue to look disinterested at home and dropped to an eye-catching 16-26 ATS on their own court, including failing to cover the line in four of their last six home games. Orlando looks like a good underdog pick (+8) in this one according to Dunkel, which has Detroit favored by 1 1/2. Dunkel Pick: Orlando (+8). Here are all of today's games.

Dallas at Vancouver
Dallas will try to overcome a 3-1 series deficit for the first time in franchise history. The trend for firsts appears to be going the Stars' way as they ended a six-game overtime playoff drought with a 1-0 win in Game Five and then snapped a six-game postseason home ice slide with a one-sided 2-0 win in Game Six. Dallas goalie Marty Turco was under heavy scrutiny after a lackluster regular season, but has responded by registering a .077 GAA and .972 save percentage since the end of regulation in Game One. Turco and the Stars look like a good underdog pick in this one according to Dunkel, which has Dallas favored straight up by 1/2 a goal. Dunkel Pick: Dallas (+1 1/2). Here are all of today's games.

MONDAY, APRIL 23

Game 43-44: Dallas at Vancouver
