Postseason baseball is officially underway, and tonight brings two intriguing matchups.

8:00 PM ET

One of baseball's most recognizable rivalries takes center stage in the American League Wild Card round.

Starting pitching will play a substantial role in determining how this game unfolds.

Boston turns to Payton Tolle, while New York counters with Cam Schlittler.

Both pitchers have demonstrated the ability to limit opposing offenses, making bullpen management and timely hitting particularly important.

Aaron Judge's absence adds another layer to the matchup.

Our complete evaluation of the starting pitchers, offensive adjustments, bullpen situations and betting market is available in tonight's Tax Code Edition.

10:00 PM ET

Matthew Boyd faces Michael King in another intriguing postseason pitching matchup.

Chicago won five of six regular-season meetings against San Diego, but postseason baseball introduces its own challenges.

Starting pitching, lineup production and late-inning bullpen depth all factor into tonight's evaluation.

A team's regular-season head-to-head success is relevant, but it cannot be considered independently of the current pitching matchup or available price.

The postseason continues tonight with Minnesota visiting New York.

The Liberty enter Game 2 following a convincing 91–75 opening victory.

Breanna Stewart led New York with 34 points and 12 rebounds.

Minnesota will look to make the necessary adjustments, while New York has an opportunity to close out the series on its home floor.

Our full matchup evaluation and betting classifications are included in the premium report.
