Two teams looking to make a run at the postseason in 2018 will square off in Thursday's NFL Hall of Fame Game Christian Kirk Youth Jersey , as the Baltimore Ravens are listed as small betting favorites against the Chicago Bears at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.The Ravens missed out on last year's playoffs in Week 17, while the Bears are hoping a new head coach will help them rebound from their fourth consecutive losing season.Baltimore is easily the more established of the two teams, led by a veteran coach-quarterback combo in John Harbaugh and Joe Flacco. Harbaugh and Flacco are each in their 11th year with the Ravens, with both coming into the league in 2008. They won a Super Bowl together in 2012 despite totaling just one more victory during the regular season (10-6) than they did a year ago (9-7).In addition, Harbaugh has been one of the best coaches during the preseason, going 28-12 straight up and 27-13 against the spread, according to the OddsShark NFL Database.On the other side Carlton Davis Youth Jersey , Chicago is breaking in a second-year quarterback in Mitchell Trubisky, who won 27-24 in overtime at Baltimore last season. Trubisky's numbers were far from eye-popping, but his leadership skills have impressed many, including teammates and first-year coach Matt Nagy. The Bears went 2-2 SU and ATS last preseason under former coach John Fox, and Nagy will look to bring in some energy and creativity as the former offensive coordinator of the Kansas City Chiefs.The key to handicapping this matchup is trying to figure out how much the starters will play for each team. With Chicago, a 2.5-point underdog on the Hall of Fame Game odds, breaking in a new offense Tremaine Youth Edmunds Youth Jersey , Trubisky could get some snaps before giving way to reserves Chase Daniel and Tyler Bray. Meanwhile, Flacco could sit or play maybe one series, giving plenty of opportunities to rookie Lamar Jackson and veteran Robert Griffin III to win the backup job with a good showing.Last year's Hall of Fame Game was a surprisingly high-scoring affair that went over the 34.5-point total, at least from preseason standards. The Dallas Cowboys edged the Arizona Cardinals 20-18 after trailing 15-0 early on and pushed as two-point favorites. Four of the previous five games at Canton finished under the total.聽 聽 聽 聽聽For more odds information, betting picks and a breakdown of this week鈥檚 top sports betting news check out the OddsShark podcast with Jon Campbell and Andrew Avery.

SAN FRANCISCO — The San Francisco Giants will attempt to complete their winningest homestand since their 2012 championship season when they go for a series sweep against the Colorado Rockies on Thursday afternoon.

Right-handers Chris Stratton (8-5, 4.14 ERA) of the Giants and Jon Gray (7-7, 5.52) of the Rockies are scheduled to duel in a rematch of a May 19 meeting in San Francisco won by the Giants 9-4.

With hard-fought 3-2 and 1-0 victories in the first two games of the series Cheap Taven Bryan Jersey , the Giants improved to 7-2 on their homestand, with one game remaining.

They haven’t had an eight-win homestand since September 2012.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy credited his pitchers, who have held the opposition to three or fewer runs in 10 of their last 13 games, including six of nine on the homestand.

“There’s a large sense of confidence here at home,” he said. “What’s impressive is the pitching here. It’s keeping us in the game.”

Stratton has given up three or fewer earned runs in seven straight starts. That streak includes the May 19 game against the Rockies, when one of the four runs he allowed was unearned.

The 27-year-old has faced the Rockies three times in his career, twice as a starter Cheap Josh Rosen Jersey , and has gone 1-0 with a 4.50 ERA.

The guy who has given him the most trouble has been Charlie Blackmon, who has four hits, including a home run, in seven at-bats against Stratton.

Blackmon had one of the Rockies’ two hits in Wednesday’s loss.

Colorado finds itself in an offensive slump entering the series finale. The Rockies have lost four in a row, having totaled nine runs in those games.

This comes on the heels of having exploded for 37 runs in their previous four games, all wins.

Gray has faced the Giants twice this season, and hasn’t seen the fifth inning either time.

After giving up five runs and nine hits in 3 2/3 innings in the May 19 loss Cheap Kolton Miller Jersey , he was roughed up at home for four runs and six hits in 3 1/3 innings in a 7-4 defeat. He did not get a decision in the latter.

Gray has started five games in his career against the Giants, going 0-2 with a 5.24 ERA. Both losses came in San Francisco.

Gray has struggled this season with Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford, the hero of Wednesday’s win with the third walk-off home run of his career. Crawford has a double and two singles in four at-bats against Gray this season.

Andrew McCutchen also has scorched the 26-year-old in the past, going 7-for-12 with two doubles.

The Giants reached the midpoint of their season with a 42-39 record Wednesday night. That’s a 12-game improvement over last season, when they were already 22 1/2 games out of first place in the National League West.

The Rockies will play their 81st game Thursday. They had 47 wins at the midpoint of the 2017 season, nine more than they have this year.
