10-11-19	Nationals +108 v. Cardinals		2-0	Win	108	22 h 55 m	Show
Taking the NATS. Have been on these guys since their Wild Card Game, not backing off now. Great outing by Sanchez last round. 9Ks in 5 innings of work. Thought he would be first guy out of pen the way he pitched in his lone start. But we get him here. And why not. Solid post season numbers - 9 games, 8 starts. Ok, a 2-5 record - 2.98 ERA 1.18 WHIP 55 Ks in 48 innings. And a nice little regular season. How about a .97 WHIP down the stretch his last 7 starts. Mikolas 9-14 on the year. Yes, better home stats. That's easy though when you post a 5.40 road ERA and .290 BA against. I have said it on several radio shows and videos since the Brewers Series. Nats playing with house money all playoffs long. No Bryce. No pressure. They aren't expected to win anything. Needed a huge run just to get here. Come back wins to advance. Something just says this is their year to get to the World Series. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON NATIONALS
10-10-19	Rays +251 v. Astros		1-6	Loss	-100	9 h 16 m	Show
Taking TAMPA BAY. Will take the big dog flyer here. Hey, we saw yesterday. Anything possible. Rays, I think, have been the better this series. 4* Money Maker TB RAYS
10-09-19	Nationals +135 v. Dodgers		7-3	Win	135	46 h 30 m	Show
Taking the NATIONALS. Will grab Stras as small dog to push Washington into the NLCS. Guy has been great in post-season play. Stras with the .61 ERA in 5 post-season games in his career. I get it. Not a huge pool of games, but he is on when he is in. 10Ks in Game 2. I don't even want 10Ks. I want like 4, so he can the distance! Can't knock Buehler at all. Guy hasn't allowed a run 16.2 post season innings. Do you really have faith in either of these bullpens? Tell you what. I won't be shocked to see Sanchez come in for some key outs late for the Nats. Upset City. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON NATIONALS
10-09-19	Cardinals v. Braves -101		13-1	Loss	-101	42 h 4 m	Show
Taking the BRAVES. Tough to fade Flaherty who was nearly untouchable at times in the second half. But this has been a tale of 2 season for Folty also. He has been rock solid since his return from Triple A. All hands on deck in this game. I give the edge to Atlanta. 4* Money Maker ATLANTA BRAVES

Taking the NATIONALS. Had the Dodgers RL last night, but also locked in on a 8/1 ticket on the Nats to win the NL. Give me some Strasburg tonight. How about a .41 Post Season ERA in 22 innings for Stras in 4 games. Granted, not the sample size of Kershaw, who people think is a failure in the playoffs. This is a nice price for a live dog. Washington is a pretty good team. I am not a fan of either bullpen. They both can go to gas can status quickly. Strasburg 1-1 2.08 ERA in two starts vs Dodgers this season and 3-5 2.54 ERA in 11 career starts vs LAD. Kershaw not too shaby vs Nats - 12-3 with a 2.23 ERA in 17 career games. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON NATIONALS
10-04-19	Cardinals -124 v. Braves		0-3	Loss	-124	7 h 23 m	Show
Taking the CARDINALS. What a comeback win yesterday - and to hold on. Wow. Let's face it. Braves up against it after a great season. Have to back Flaherty here. A .91 ERA his last 15 starts with a .71 WHIP. Just dealing right now. A tale of 2 season for Folty. A 6.37 ERA his first 11 starts - A 2.65 ERA in 10 starts following a trip to Triple A. Pressure firmly on Atlanta here. You don't need to be pressing at the plate facing this guy. Short number. Look for STL to take hold of the series. 4* Money Maker STL CARDS
10-02-19	Rays v. A's -134	Top	5-1	Loss	-134	47 h 24 m	Show
Taking OAKLAND here. Now. I do like both of these guys. Shame they have to play in a one game playoff. It is like getting a pair of Mid-Majors in that 8/9 or 5/12 game in the NCAAs. You want to back the Sun Belt, Patriot or Big West. But no. You are staring at the Ohio Valley, Summit or CAA darling you had circled! Two low payroll teams showing the big boys how to win. Uh.. Rant over - So I like the A's to advance. One. I think their bullpen is a bit better. Two. The lineup has much more punch than the Rays. 3 - Manaea. We get this guy out of the gate, we are looking strong. 5 starts, 4-0 with a 1.21 ERA. A .78 WHIP on the year. Listen. This is no knock on Charlie Morton. 16-6 3.05 ERA on the year 240 Ks. Guy is good. Probably will see a little Glasnow if he gets in trouble along the way. Again. I just think they A's have enough offense to push across the runs here. Low scoring and we will also be on the UNDER. 5* Best Bet OAKLAND A's
09-26-19	Marlins +243 v. Mets		4-2	Win	243	7 h 31 m	Show
Taking the MARLINS. Unlike taking RL's on teams trying to lock up playoff spots - here, we fade the Mets after their season is official ended. 4* Money Maker MIAMI MARLINS

Taking the NATIONALS. Think Stras has an outside shot at the Cy Young. To nail it down, he needs some wins in my opinion. Twins good, but sending average at best pitcher to the hill. Washington can hit a bit and should take advantage of Perez who has a home ERA of 4.71. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON NATIONALS
09-10-19	A's v. Astros -155		21-7	Loss	-155	8 h 10 m	Show
Taking the ASTROS. Normally, after a 15-0 beat down, I would come back on that team. But as much as I do like Oakland, I cannot get behind Roark tonight. Miley 5-2 1.71 ERA in 8 career starts vs A's. How about a nice 7-1 2.84 ERA at home 4* Money Maker HOUSTON ASTROS
09-10-19	Rays -131 v. Rangers		5-3	Win	100	8 h 10 m	Show
Taking the RAYS. Time for the better teams to deliver down the stretch. Rays red hot. Leading Wild Card race. Every game counts. Yarbrough 2.25 ERA last last 6 starts with a .195 BAA - Lynn 0-4 run last 6 starts. Rays 6-1 last 7 vs Rangers. 4* Money Maker TB RAYS
09-10-19	Diamondbacks +115 v. Mets		2-3	Loss	-100	7 h 18 m	Show
Taking the DIAMONDBACKS. Gallen pitching well since the trade. Not that high on Wheeler and the Mets. Arizona still fighting for Wild-Card. 4* Money Maker ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS
09-09-19	Yankees -109 v. Red Sox		5-0	Win	100	9 h 9 m	Show
Taking the YANKEES. Red Sox all but over. Paxton on a 7-0 run with a sub 3 ERA. I know Rodriguez has nice numbers, but at this price, we are backing the Bombers. 4* Money Maker NY YANKEES
09-09-19	Braves +122 v. Phillies		7-2	Win	122	9 h 48 m	Show
Taking the BRAVES. I'll grab Atlanta at this price. And why not. 9-1 last 10, 17-3 last 20 and winners of 20 of their last 25. This is why they are running away with the NL East. Folty pitching better since his Triple A recall. Nola has solid numbers at home. But in this spot, have to take the value on the road dog. 4* Money Maker ATLANTA BRAVES
