The Moonshot is the day's one big swing, separate from the board and separate from the Parlay of the Day. Monday's slate is a favorites slate, so the Moonshot goes the other way on purpose: if this is the night the whole board flips, this is the ticket that cashes it. No leg repeats a straight pick or a parlay leg as the same play.

The math up top

Five moneyline underdogs at +350, +124, +190, +117 and +119 combine to +13792. A $10 ticket returns $1,389.19. Honest math, shown before the reasoning, like every Moonshot.

Leg by leg

Commanders moneyline (+350) at the 49ers. The biggest dog on the ticket. Jayden Daniels ran for two scores in his return from a dislocated elbow, Washington's games keep landing in shootouts and one Daniels masterpiece in prime time is the whole case. That is what a Moonshot leg is.

Guardians moneyline (+124) at the Rays in ALCS Game 6. Cleveland's season is on the line and elimination games produce desperate baseball. Steven Kwan is hitting and defending like the best player in this series, and a team that has already won twice in this series only has to win once more to force a Game 7.

Flyers moneyline (+190) against the Avalanche. Philadelphia is 1-6-3 and desperate at home, and Joseph Woll has a .916 save percentage with strong goals saved numbers this season. A hot goalie against a heavy road favorite is a classic single-game flip.

Ducks moneyline (+117) at the Rangers. Anaheim is 4-3-0 and live, and the Rangers' likely starter Dylan Garand is the kind of name that makes a -140 home price fragile if the night goes sideways early.

Sharks moneyline (+119) at the Maple Leafs. San Jose is 4-3-1, Toronto is 3-4-2, and this is the smallest gap between the two teams in any leg on the ticket. The Sharks do not need a miracle. They need one good road game.

Five dogs, one night, no rent money. The Moonshot is priced and tracked privately like everything else on the board.
