20* NATIONALS/ASTROS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nationals +128

My money is on the Nationals to cash in a win as a road dog in Game 7. Washington will have ace Max Scherzer on the mound and because he wasn't able to go in Game 5, his arm should be locked and loaded for this winner-take-all matchup. I trust him a heck of a lot more than Astros starter Zack Greinke. BET THE NATIONALS +128! 

20* NATIONALS/ASTROS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nationals vs Astros over 7½ +100

My money is on the OVER 7.5 in Game 6 of the World Series. Most are going to want to take the UNDER at 7.5 with the likes of Strasburg and Verlander on the mound, but these two faced off in Game 2 and there were 15 runs scored. Both games in Houston saw at least 9 runs and all but one game in this series has reached at least 8 runs. BET THE OVER 7.5! 

20* ASTROS/NATIONALS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Astros -120

My money is on the Astros to cash in a must-win in Game 3 at Washington. Houston has to win to avoid falling behind 3-0 and I just think this team is too good to lose 3 straight to a team like the Nats. Washington won the first two with their two big horses in Scherzer and Strasburg. Not the same punch with Anibal Sanchez. Oh and Astros starter Zack Greinke has owned the Nationals with a 1.27 ERA and 0.830 WHIP in 9 starts. BET THE ASTROS -120! 

20* NATIONALS/ASTROS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nationals +166

My money is on the Nationals to cash in another win and take a commanding 2-0 series lead before heading back home for Game 3 on Friday. More than anything the price is just too good to pass up with Washington given how good Stephen Strasburg has been and the recent struggles of Verlander. BET THE NATIONALS +166! 

20* NATIONALS/ASTROS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Astros -185

My money is on the Astros to cash in an easy win at home in Game 1 of the World Series. I just think Houston has a slight edge here because their series went a little longer and they haven't had to sit around for a week like the Nationals. As tempting as it is to back Scherzer at this price, Gerrit Cole has been pitching out of his mind and Houston has the better offense and better bullpen. BET THE ASTROS -185! 

20* ASTROS/YANKEES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Yankees +134

My money is on the Yankees to avoid elimination with a win at home in Game 5 against the Astros. I know Houston has won 3 straight and will have Verlander on the mound, but I like the value here with NY at home. Yankees will send out James Paxton who is 7-3 with a 3.48 ERA and 1.173 WHIP in 16 home starts. Verlander has been solid but not great in 3 starts vs NY this season. BET THE YANKEES +134! 

20* ASTROS/YANKEES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Astros vs Yankees over 7½ -111

My money is on the OVER 7.5 in Game 4 of the ALCS between New York and Houston. Zack Greinke has been awful in the postseason. Tanaka has been great, but the more teams see him the more he struggles. The even bigger factor here is the wind will be blowing out to left center at close to 15 mph the entire game. Too much offensive fire-power on both sides for this to stay under. BET THE OVER 7.5! 

20* ASTROS/YANKEES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Yankees +150

My money is on the Yankees to cash in a win at home in Game 3. Books are inflating Houston with Gerrit Cole on the mound. New York has the offensive fire-power to get to Cole. The combination of starter Luis Severino and that Yankees bullpen is also not getting enough respect. This should be a lot closer to a pick'em. BET NEW YORK +150! 

20* CARDINALS/NATIONALS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nationals -125

My money is on the Nationals to cash in an easy win at home in Game 3 and take a commanding 3-0 series lead over the Cardinals. Simply too good a price to pass up on Washington with Strasburg on the mound. After two strong starts against the Dodgers, he's got a a 1.32 ERA with a 45-5 K/BB ratio in 34 postseason innings. BET THE NATIONALS -125! 

20* YANKEES/ASTROS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Astros -151

My money is on the Astros to cash in a win at home and even up the ALCS with New York at 1-1. Houston lost Game 1, but they got Justin Verlander on the mound to make things right. Verlander has gone 11-4 with a 2.28 ERA and 0.837 WHIP in 18 home starts. He made two starts against the Yankees this season and Houston won both. Going back to 2016, Verlander's team has won 6 of his 7 starts against New York. BET THE ASTROS -151! 

20* NATIONALS/CARDINALS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nationals +109

My money is on the Nationals to cash in a win on the road in Game 1 of the NLCS. I just think Washington is the better team. With temps below 50, runs figure to be hard to come by. I trust the Nationals' bats a lot more and St Louis start Miles Mikolas has had some trouble against these Washington hitters. BET THE NATIONALS +109! 

20* RAYS/ASTROS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Astros -248

My money is on the Astros to avoid the big upset and win Game 5 at home against the Rays. Houston is due to breakout offensively after being held in check the last two games at Tampa. It also helps they got ace Gerrit Cole on the mound who has a 0.46 ERA and 0.661 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Not to mention Houston is 16-2 in his 18 home starts this season, where he's posted a 2.46 ERA and 0.779 WHIP. BET THE ASTROS -248! 

20* CARDINALS/BRAVES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cardinals +101

My money is on the Cardinals to take Game 5 on the road an advance to the NLCS. I know this is a rematch of Game 2 in Atlanta, where Foltynewicz out performed Jack Flaherty, but I don't trust Foltynewicz nearly as much as I do Flaherty. Even with the strong showing in this series, Foltynewicz is just 4-4 with a 6.30 ERA in 8 career starts against the Cardinals. BET ST. LOUIS +101!  

20* ASTROS/RAYS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Astros -225

My money is on the Astros to cash in an easy win as a massive road favorite against the Rays. Houston won the first two in the series before dropping Game 3, but Tampa had the edge on the mound in Game 3. That won't be the case tonight, as the Astros give the ball to Justin Verlander and the Rays turn to Diego Castillo. Verlander started Game 1 and allowed just 1 hit over 7 shutout innings. Castillo is an "opener" with a 10.39 ERA in his last 3 starts. BET THE ASTROS -225! 

20* YANKEES/TWINS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Yankees -138

My money is on the Yankees to cash in a win and finish off the sweep of the Twins Monday night. New York has now won 12 straight playoff games against the Twins and Minnesota has now lost 15 straight in the playoffs. Out of the last 30 teams to go up 2-0 in the division series, 18 have went on to sweep. Yankees will have Luis Severino going and while he might not pitch deep, the bullpen is rested and ready to take over if needed. BET THE YANKEES -138! 

20* TWINS/YANKEES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Yankees -181

My money is on the Yankees to cash in an easy win Friday night in Game 1 against the Twins in their ALDS matchup. New York has a huge edge on the mound. James Paxton is 7-3 with a 3.35 ERA in 10 home starts, posted a 2.25 ERA in his last 3 outings of the regular-season and owns a 2.27 ERA in 6 starts vs the Twins. Minnesota's Jose Berrios struggled down the stretch with a 4.19 ERA in his last 3 and has an ugly 5.79 ERA in 3 starts against New York. BET THE YANKEES -181! 

20* CARDINALS/BRAVES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cardinals vs Braves over 8½ -120

My money is on the OVER 8.5 in Thursday's NLDS contest between the Cardinals and Braves. It won't be blowing out hard, but the wind will be blowing to center and the ball should be carrying really well given it's expected to be in the 90's for this game. I could definitely see Cardinals starter Miles Mikolas giving up a big number, as he was not a good road pitcher this season. Dallas Keuchel has been hit or miss for Atlanta and currently he's been on a big miss run with a 6.19 ERA and 1.750 WHIP in his last 3 starts. BET THE OVER 8.5! 

20* RAYS/A'S MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rays +129

My money is on the Ray's to cash in a win on the road against the A's in Wednesday's AL Wild Card game. It's hard to argue with the A's going with Sean Manaea given how good he's been, but he's only made 5 starts after missing a year. His last 4 outings were against the Mariners, Rangers (2x) and Tigers. A's offense has also been in a funk, scoring 3 or fewer in each of their last 7. I trust the Rays offense and Charlie Morton a lot more and they are the dog. Bet Tampa Bay +129! 

20* BREWERS/NATIONALS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Brewers +172

My money is on the Brewers to cash in a shocking upset on the road against the Nationals in the NL Wild Card matchup. Everyone just sees Max Scherzer vs Brandon Woodwruff and bets Washington. I like the dog here. Brewers were nuts over the final month of the season and are simply playing with a ton of confidence. Schereze wasn't exactly like himself after coming back from injury. He had 6.11 ERA and 1.245 WHIP in his final 3 starts. Give me the Brewers +172! 

15* BRAVES/METS MLB SHARP WINNER on Mets -104

My money is on the Mets to cash in a win at home in the regular-season finale on Sunday. Atlanta's focus is going to be more on the postseason than winning this game. Mets will have ace Noah Syndergaard on the mound. Bet the Mets -104! 

15* A'S/MARINERS MLB SHARP WINNER on A's -205

My money is on the A's to cash in easy win as a big road favorite against the Mariners. Seattle has shown little life down the stretch and come in having lost 4 straight. A's need this game to help secure a Wild Card spot, so we know we are getting their very best. With Michael Fiers on the mound for Oakland and Justus Sheffield going for Seattle this won't be close. Bet the A's -205! 

20* TWINS/ROYALS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Royals +195

My money is on the Royals as a huge home dog against the Twins. Sure Minnesota has Jose Berrios on the mound, but they are going to limit him to make sure he's 100% for the postseason. Zero to gain here for the Twins, who are locked into the No. 3 seed in the AL. Royals have showed some fight down the stretch and I think they will be motivated to play well at home against the AL Central champs. Bet Kansas City +195! 

15* INDIANS/WHITE SOX MLB SHARP WINNER on Indians vs White Sox over 9 +104

My money is on the OVER 9 in Thursday's AL Central showdown between the White Sox and Indians. These two have combined for 11 runs in each of the first two games in the series. Both offenses have showed out with Cleveland scoring 11 in the opener and Chicago putting up 8 runs yesterday. Indians should be able to put up a decent number against Dylan Cease and I like the White Sox to add a few to push us over the mark. BET THE OVER 9! 

20* ROCKIES/GIANTS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Giants -118

My money is on the Giants to cash in an easy winner at home against the Rockies. Giants won yesterday 2-1 and will have the hotter starter going in this one. SF will turn to Tyler Beede and his 3.12 ERA and 1.154 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Rockies counter with the struggling Kyle Freeland, who has a 6.84 ERA in 21 starts overall and a 5.40 ERA in his last 3. Bet the Giants -118! 

20* CARDINALS/DBACKS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Diamondbacks -101

My money is on the Diamondbacks to cash in a win at home against the Cardinals. Dbacks put an end to St Louis' 6-game winning streak on Tuesday and are in prime position to add to that with a win tonight. Arizona will have Merril Kelly on the mound and he's got a strong 3.22 ERA in 15 home starts and a 1.35 ERA and 0.950 WHIP in his last 3 outings. Bet the Diamondbacks -101! 

15* CARDINALS/DBACKS MLB SHARP WINNER on Diamondbacks +185

My money is on the Diamondbacks to cash in a win at home against the Cardinals as a massive underdog. Mike Leake will go for Arizona and he's got a strong 3.32 ERA and 1.105 WHIP in his last 3 starts. He also dominated the Cardinals in his only start against them this year, allowing just 5 hits over 7 2/3 shutout innings. Bet Arizona +185! 

20* BREWERS/REDS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Reds -131

My money is on the Reds to cash in an easy winner at home against the Brewers. Big time pitching mismatch in this one. Cincinnati's Sonny Gray is 8-2 with a 2.79 ERA and 1.066 WHIP in 15 home starts. He's also a perfect 5-0 against the money line in 5 career starts against the Brewers, posting a 1.78 ERA in those 5 starts. Bet Cincinnati -131! 

20* ORIOLES/BLUE JAYS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Blue Jays -168

My money is on the Blue Jays to cash in a win at home against the Orioles on Monday. While Toronto lost the final 2 games of their 3-game series at New York, they have been playing well down the stretch. Orioles are 0-15 last 15 roa dgames when revenging a 3 game sweep at home. Bet Toronto -168! 

15* DBACKS/PADRES MLB SHARP WINNER on Diamondbacks +104

My money is on the Diamondbacks to cash in an easy win at San Diego on Friday. Padres have not been playing well. San Diego lost 5-1 at Milwaukee on Thursday and have now scored 2 or fewer runs in 4 straight games. That's the definition of a slump. That offense will be up against the red-hot Merrill Kelly of Arizona, who has a 1.35 ERA and 0.950 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bet the Diamondbacks +104! 

20* WHITE SOX/TIGERS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on White Sox -121

My money is on the White Sox to cash in an easy road win over the Tigers on Friday. Detroit has gone just 3-8 in their last 11 games and have scored a mere 3 runs in their last 2 games. I don't see that offense getting going against the red-hot Dylan Cease, who has a 3.60 ERA in his last 3 starts. Also, Chicago's offense should score plenty, as the Tigers turn to Jordan Zimmermann, who is 1-11 with a 6.32 ERA and 1.442 WHIP in 21 starts this season. Bet the White Sox -121! 

15* PADRES/BREWERS MLB SHARP WINNER on Brewers -151

My money is on the Brewers to cash in a win at home against the Padres. Milwaukee will send out Jordan Lyles, who has been really good of late. Lyles has a 2.16 ERA and 1.140 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Padres counter with Joey Lucchesi, who has a 5.17 ERA and 1.595 WHIP in his last 3 starts and a 6.19 ERA in 13 road outings this year. Bet the Brewers -151! 

20* GIANTS/RED SOX MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Giants +159

My money is on the Giants to cash in a win and a big payout here as a road dog against the Red Sox. San Francisco will have Madison Bumgarner on the mound and he's fresh off two strong outings. Both starts he completed 7 innings and allowed just 2 earned runs. Red Sox are just 3-7 in their last 10 and fell 11-3 on Wednesday. Boston is just 4-10 in their last 14 at home after a game where they bullpen threw 6+ innings and just 9-16 last 25 after giving up 8 or more runs. Giants are 8-2 last 10 off a win by 6 or more. Bet San Francisco +159! 

15* PADRES/BREWERS MLB SHARP WINNER on Brewers -139

My money is on the Brewers to cash in a win at home against the Padres. Milwaukee has saved the best for last. Brewers have won 4 straight and 11 of their last 12 overall. Padres have lost 6 straight. How do you not take a shot on Milwaukee at less than -150 at home? Bet the Brewers -139! 

20* METS/ROCKIES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rockies +156

My money is on the Rockies to cash in a win as a massive home dog against the Mets. New York is way overvalued here again. Colorado won 9-4 as a +140 dog against the Mets yesterday. Rockies have scored 40 runs in their last 4 games, hitting at least 9 runs in all 4 games. You just can't pass up on a team that is hitting the ball as well as Colorado at this price. Bet the Rockies +156! 

15* REDS/CUBS MLB SHARP WINNER on Cubs -145

My money is on the Cubs to cash in a win at home against the Reds. Chicago has caught fire at the perfect time, as they try to catch St Louis in the NL Central and secure at least a Wild Card spot. Cubs have won 5 straight and have scored an absurd 55 runs in their last 4 games. That offense will go to work behind Yu Darvish, who has a 0.47 ERA and 0.737 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bet the Cubs -145! 

20* NATIONALS/CARDINALS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nationals -125

My money is on the Nationals to cash in an easy win at St Louis on Monday. Washington will have Strasburg has a 2.25 ERA and 0.800 WHIP in his last 3 starts and a 2.38 ERA and 1.059 WHIP in 7 career starts against the Cardinals. Nats are 16-2 in their last 18 vs an NL team like St Louis with a team average of .250 or worse in the 2nd half of the season. Bet Washington -125! 

20* RAYS/ANGELS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rays -167

My money is on the Rays to cash in a win at LA on Sunday. Tampa Bay has won 8 of their last 10 and the Angels enter having lost 6 straight. Rays will send out Ryan Yarbrough, who is 3-0 with a 2.20 ERA and 0.585 WHIP in 6 road starts. Tampa is also 30-19 in their last 49 road games vs a left-handed starter and 23-8 in their last 31 after a game where they held their opponent to 1 or fewer runs. Bet the Rays -167! 

15* RED SOX/PHILLIES MLB SHARP WINNER on Red Sox +100

My money is on the Red Sox to cash in a win on the road against the Phillies. Boston is out to play spoiler down the stretch and we will look to fade Philadelphia starter Jason Vargas, who has a 6.57 ERA and 2.028 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Reds Sox are 12-2 last 14 road games against NL teams with a OBP of .325 or less. Bet Boston +100! 

15* RAYS/ANGELS MLB SHARP WINNER on Rays -121

My money is on the Rays to cash in a win at Los Angeles Friday night. Tampa Bay will have Charlie Morton on the mound and he's 7-3 with a 3.52 ERA and 1.233 WHIP in 15 road starts. Angels will have Andrew Heaney and he's got a 4.47 ERA in 8 home starts. Rays lost 6-4 at Texas and are 12-2 in their last 14 road games after a loss by 2 runs or less. Bet the Rays -121! 

20* BREWERS/CARDINALS WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cardinals -121

My money is on the Cardinals to cash in a win at home against the Brewers. Not a lot to think about here. St Louis will have Adam Wainwright on the mound and he's got a 2.43 ERA in 13 home starts. Brewers send out Adrian Houser and he's 1-3 with a 5.09 ERA and 1.500 WHIP in 7 road starts. Bet St Louis -121! 

15* NATIONALS/TWINS MLB SHARP WINNER on Twins +111

My money is on the Twins to cash in a win at home against the Nationals. Washington's Pat Corbin has great numbers. Guy is 11-7 with a 3.16 ERA and 1.141 WHIP in 29 starts. That's great. However, he got serious home/away splits. Corbin is just 4-5 with a 4.45 ERA and 1.376 WHIP in 15 road starts. Twins are too good a team to be a dog at home in this spot. Bet Minnesota +111! 

20* DBACKS/METS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Diamondbacks +123

My money is on the Diamondbacks to cash in a win and put an end to their 4-game skid on Thursday. Arizona has a clear edge on the mound. Dbacks will send out Alex Young, who is 5-1 with a 2.46 ERA and 1.031 WHIP in 6 road starts. He's also got a 1.53 ERA and 0.793 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Mets will have Marcus Stroman on the mound and he's got a 5.62 ERA and 1.687 WHIP in his last 3. Bet the Diamondbacks +123! 

15* CUBS/PADRES MLB SHARP WINNER on Padres -100

My money is on the Padres to cash in a win at home against the Cubs. San Diego won on a walk-off walk on Tuesday. Chicago has now lost 4 of 5 and their Wild Card lead is slipping away. The Cubs are definitely pressing right now and just aren't consistent enough at the plate. I think they struggle here against Padres starter Chris Paddack. Cubs will also have Cole Hamels on the mound and he's just 4-5 with a 5.66 ERA and 1.689 WHIP in 12 road starts. Bet the Padres -100! 

20* BREWERS/MARLINS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Marlins +151

My money is on the Marlins to cash in a win at home against the Brewers. Easy play on Miami at this price with how good starter Pablo Lopez has been at home this season. Lopez has a 2.68 ERA and 0.932 WHIP in 9 home starts. Milwaukee will send out Zach Davies and they have lost 5 of his last 7 starts. Bet the Marlins +151! 

20* PIRATES/GIANTS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Giants -121

My money is on the Giants to cash in an easy win at home against the Pirates. Easy fade of Pittsburgh with Mitch Keller starting. Keller has made 8 starts for the Pirates and owns a 8.18 ERA and 1.879 WHIP. Last time he took the mound outside of Pittsburgh he gave up 8 runs on 11 hits in 4 innings at Philly. Johnny Cueto goes for the Giants and I'm willing to bet he's better than Keller in this one. Bet the Giants -121! 

15* ROYALS/WHITE SOX MLB SHARP WINNER on White Sox -127

My money is on the White Sox to cash in a win at home against the Royals. Chicago will have Ivan Nova on the mound and he's been a different pitcher in the 2nd half. Nova had a 6.28 ERA in the middle of June and 5.60 ERA at the All-Star break. After posting a 1.95 ERA 6 August starts, he's got that ERA down to 4.69. I also like how this White Sox team is swinging the bat. Chicago has scored 5 or more in 5 of their last 6 games. Bet the White Sox -127! 

20* ASTROS/A'S AL WEST GAME OF THE MONTH on Astros -158

My money is on the Astros to cash in an easy win at home against the A's. Houston just swept their 4-game series at home against Seattle over the weekend. They won the finale 21-1 on Sunday, the third time in the series they scored at least 7 runs. I look for them to stay hot at the plate against the struggling Michael Fiers, who has a 4.02 ERA and 1.788 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Astros will have Zack Greinke on the mound and he's 14-5 with a 3.24 ERA and 1.025 WHIP in 29 starts. Greinke is also 7-2 with a 3.02 ERA in 13 starts vs the A's in his career. Bet the Astros -158! 

15* ANGELS/WHITE SOX MLB SHARP WINNER on White Sox +112

My money is on the White Sox to cash in a win at home against the Angels. Chicago will have Dylan Cease going and he was really good last time out at Cleveland. I think he builds off that outing against LA and the White Sox offense scores enough to get the win. Bet Chicago +112! 

20* ROYALS/MARLINS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Royals -102

My money is on the Royals to cash in a win at Miami on Sunday. KC will send out Mike Montgomery for this one and he's got a strong 3.71 ERA in his last 3 starts and has posted a 3.69 ERA in 9 starts overall this season. Sandy Alcantara goes for the Marlins and he's just 2-8 with a 4.67 ERA and 1.327 WHIP in 14 home starts. Bet the Royals -102! 

15* ANGELS/WHITE SOX MLB SHARP WINNER on Angels +134

My money is on the Angels to cash in a win at Chicago on Friday. This is a great price to back LA in a matchup of two bad teams, as the White Sox are getting way to much respect here with Giolitto on the mound. White Sox have actually lost each of his last 5 starts at home and are just 1-5 in his last 6 when he opens up a series. Bet the Angels +134! 

20* CUBS/BREWERS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Brewers +111

My money is on Milwaukee to bounce back and get a win at home over the Cubs. Chicago won 10-5 on Thursday, as Quintana continued his dominance of the Brewers. Milwaukee starter Chase Anderson was also in poor form. Today's the opposite. Zach Davies will start and just held the Cubs to 4 hits over 4 2/3 scoreless innings in his last start. Cubs counter with Cole Hames, who has a 5.16 ERA in 11 road starts. Bet the Brewers +111! 

20* MARLINS/PIRATES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pirates -150

My money is on the Pirates to cash in a win at home against the Marlins. I get Pittsburgh isn't a playoff team, but this is too good a price to pass up on a team hosting Miami. Even more so when you factor in how well the Pirates have been playing to close out the year. Pittsburgh has came out on top in 9 of their last 12 games. Bet the Pirates -150! 

15* TIGERS/ROYALS MLB SHARP WINNER on Tigers -102

My money is on the Tigers to cash in a win on the road against the Royals. I like Detroit starter Matthew Boyd, who has big time swing and miss stuff (219 K's in 165 innings). KC will have Glenn Sparkman on the mound and he's got a 8.59 ERA and 1.774 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bet the Tigers -102! 

25* PADRES/DBACKS NL WEST GAME OF THE MONTH on Padres +115

My money is on the Padres to come away with a win on the road against Arizona. This is a play backing San Diego starter Chris Paddack, who has been one of the better pitchers in the game as a rookie. Paddack was great in his last start, giving up 1 run in 7 innings and has a 1.59 ERA and 0.794 WHIP in 2 starts vs the Diamondbacks this season. Bet the Padres +115! 

15* TIGERS/ROYALS MLB SHARP WINNER on Royals -190

My money is on the Royals to cash in a win at home against the Tigers. KC comes in having won 3 straight and have really been swinging the bats well. Royals have scored 6 or more runs in 5 of their last 7. They should be able to hit that mark again, as Detroit turns to Edwin Jackson, who is 2-7 with a 9.35 ERA and 1.962 WHIP in 10 starts. In just his last 3 starts, Jackson has allowed 19 runs in 12 1/3 innings of work. Bet the Royals -190! 

15* ANGELS/A'S MLB SHARP WINNER on Angels +160

My money is on the Angels to cash in a win here as a big road dog against the A's. LA would love nothing more than to play spoiler against a division rival. Angles will send out Jamie Barria, who just held the Astros to 2 runs on 3 hits in 5 1/3 innings last time out. Last time Barria faced the A's he didn't allow a run in 4 2/3 innings. Bet the Angels +160! 

15* PADRES/DBACKS MLB SHARP WINNER on Diamondbacks -128

My money is on the Diamondbacks to cash in a win at home against the Padres. While Arizona lost last time out, they are on quite the roll of late. Dbacks had won 6 straight prior to the loss. I look for them to get right back on track here behind veteran starter Mike Leake. Last time out Leake gave up just 2 runs on 4 hits in 7 1/3 innings at SF. Padres send out Cal Quantrill, who has a 7.47 ERA in his last 3 starts. Bet the Diamondbacks -128! 

20* TWINS/TIGERS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Tigers +206

My money is on the Tigers to cash in a win here as a massive home dog to the Twins. No question who the better team is, but we know Detroit will be motivated here to play spoiler against a division rival. Tigers also have a red-hot starter going in Jordan Zimmermann. In his last 3 starts he's got a 2.25 ERA and 0.625 WHIP. He allowed just 1 hit over 5 shutout innings at home against the Rays, yielded just 2 runs in 5 innings at Houston and then held the Indians to 2 runs over 6 innings in his last start. Bet the Tigers +206! 

15* ROCKIES/PIRATES MLB SHARP WINNER on Rockies +104

My money is on the Rockies to cash in a win at home against the Pirates. Pittsburgh has been playing well, but are getting a little too much love here with Brault on the mound. Pirates are just 1-6 in Brault's last 7 starts. He's got a 4.04 ERA and a awful 1.598 WHIP in 7 road starts. Bet the Rockies +104! 

20* INDIANS/RAYS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rays -179

My money is on the Rays to cash in a win at home against the Indians. Tampa Bay will have Charlie Morton on the mound and he's been straight dealing at home this season. Morton has a 2.68 ERA and 0.942 WHIP in 13 home starts. Rays have won a ridiculous 23 of 28 games played on Sunday and are 7-2 in their last 9 vs a team with a winning record. Bet Tampa Bay -179! 

20* METS/PHILLIES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Phillies +103

My money is on the Phillies to cash in a win at home against the Mets. Philadelphia will send out Jason Vargas, who has a 2.74 ERA and 1.188 WHIP when he toes the rubber in a home game this season. New York will start Steven Matz and he's 2-7 with a 6.28 ERA and 1.557 WHIP in 13 road starts. Matz is also 1-4 with a 6.27 ERA and 1.697 WHIP in 8 career starts against Philadelphia. Bet the Phillies +103! 

20* PADRES/GIANTS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Giants -126

My money is on the Giants to cash in a win at home against the Padres. I get that SF has fallen on hard times at the worst time, but I don't think they are going to throw in the towel on 2019 just yet. Hard to pass up a play on the Giants as a small home favorite with ace Madison Bumgarner on the mound. While Bumgarner hasn't been as dominant as years past, he does own a very strong 2.85 ERA and 0.930 WHIP in 15 home starts. Bet San Francisco -126! 

15* WHITE SOX/BRAVES MLB SHARP WINNER on Braves -185

My money is on the Braves to cash in a win at home against the White Sox. Chicago comes in having lost 3 straight as they finished up a 7-game homestand. White Sox are a good team to fade after playing a bunch at home, as they are just 9-29 in their last 38 after playing 6 or more at home. Braves are off a 9-4 win at Toronto Wednesday and have gone 21-8 in their last 29 after scoring 8 or more runs. Atlanta is also 15-4 in Max Fried's last 19 starts after a win. Bet the Braves -185! 

20* PADRES/GIANTS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Padres -115

My money is on the Padres to cash in a win on the road against the Giants. San Diego will be motivated here to play spoiler against a division rival and put SF out of their misery. Giants are in a bit of a free fall with a 2-6 record over their last 8 and today they go up against a strong starter in Chris Paddack, who has a solid 3.84 ERA and 1.031 WHIP in 22 starts. SF only averages 3.4 runs/game and are hitting .228 as a team at home this season. Bet the Padres -115! 

15* PIRATES/ROCKIES MLB SHARP WINNER on Rockies +101

My money is on the Rockies to cash in a win at home against the Pirates. I think homefield is big in these late season matchups between non-contenders. I also love the value with a strong Colorado offense going up against a struggling starter in Trevor WIlliams, who has a 7.62 ERA and 1.923 WHIP In his last 3 starts. Bet the Rockies +101! 

20* RED SOX/ROCKIES WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Red Sox -173

My money is on the Red Sox to cash in an easy win on the road against the Rockies. Boston has been written off by a lot of people, but the Red Sox are still fighting. They are a strong 8-3 in their last 11 and are just 6-games out of the final Wild Card spot. No way this team is throwing in the towel for at least a couple more weeks. Eduardo Rodriguez gets the start in this one and he's got a 2.21 ERA and 1.230 WHIP In his last 3 starts. Rockies Peter Lambert has a 6.40 ERA and 1.607 WHIP in 14 starts. Bet the Red Sox -173! 

15* REDS/MARLINS MLB SHARP WINNER on Reds -130

My money is on the Reds to cash in an easy win on the road against the Marlins. Cincinnati has won each of the first two games in the series, as the Marlins' pitching staff continues to get pounded. Miami has allowed 36 runs in their last 5 games. Reds have scored 22 in their last 3, hitting at least 6 runs in all 3 games. Bet the Reds -130! 

15* MLB RANGERS/ANGELS MLB SHARP WINNER on Angels -138

My money is on the Angles to cash in an easy win at home against the Rangers. Texas will have Mike Minor on the rubber and his last start was against these same Angels. It wasn't pretty. LA tagged him for 7 runs on 10 hits. Andrew Heaney goes for the Angels and has a 2.41 ERA and 0.643 WHIP in his last 3 starts. His last start against Texas (Aug. 20th), he limited the Rangers to 1 run on 4 hits with 14 K's in 8 innings. Bet the Angels -138! 

20* CUBS/METS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cubs +102

My money is on the Cubs to cash in a win at New York on Tuesday. I know the last start was not a good one by Darvish, but overall he's been outstanding of late. Since the All-Star break he's made 8 starts and only failed to complete 6 innings twice and has given up 2 or fewer runs in 5 of those outings. Marcus Stroman goes for the Mets and he's got a 4.11 ERA and 1.696 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bet Chicago +102! 

20* CARDINALS/BREWERS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cardinals +124

My money is on the Cardinals to cash in a win as a road dog against the Brewers. St Louis will send out Adam Wainwright and he's got Milwaukee's number. Wainwright has faced the Brewers 33 times in his career and owns a sensational 2.53 ERA and 1.043 WHIP. You also want to be backing the vet during the stretch run, as the Cardinals have won 16 of his 20 starts in the 2nd half of the season the last two years. Bet St Louis +124! 

15* RANGERS/WHITE SOX MLB SHARP WINNER on Rangers +121

My money is on the Rangers to cash in a win at Chicago on Sunday. I like this price with Texas, as they will send out 23-year-old Brock Burke, who shined in his big league debut last week. Burke held the Angels to just 4 hits over 6 shutout innings. He'll face a White Sox offense that couldn't manage a single run in the Rangers 4-0 win on Saturday. Chicago will have Reynaldo Lopez on the mound and he's a mere 7-11 with a 5.25 ERA in 26 starts. Bet the Rangers +121! 

20* DBACKS/BREWERS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Brewers +101

My money is on the Brewers to cash in a win at home against the Diamondbacks. Milwaukee has won 3 straight and will be looking for a sweep of Arizona on Sunday. Brewers have held the Dbacks to just 1 run on 6 hits over the first two games, so starter Zach Davies is facing a team that has little to no confidence at the plate right now. Davies is also 3-1 with a strong 3.33 ERA in 4 career starts against Arizona. Bet the Brewers +101! 

15* ANGELS/ASTROS MLB SHARP WINNER on Astros -230

My money is on the Astors to cash in an easy win at home against the Angels. No need to overthink this one, lay the big juice with the home side. Astros will have Wade Miley on the mound and he's 6-1 with a 2.25 ERA and 1.059 WHIP in 11 home starts. Dillon Peters go for the Angels and he's got an ugly 5.04 ERA and 1.520 WHIP in 5 starts. Bet the Astros -230! 

20* NATIONALS/CUBS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nationals +131

My money is on the Nationals to cash in a win at Chicago on Saturday. Washington made easy work of the Cubs in Friday's 8-0 win and I like them to build off that with Joe Ross taking the mound. Ross has a 1.35 ERA and 1.163 WHIP in 5 starts and 4 of the 5 outings have coming on the road. Bet the Nationals +131! 

20* YANKEES/DODGERS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Dodgers -145

My money is on the Dodgers to cash in a win at home against the Yankees. I don't care who the opponent is, I'm backing LA at less than -150 with Hyn-Jin Ryu on the mound. Ryu has made 11 home starts this season and the Dodgers have won all 11 of those. There's nothing fluky about it, as he's posted a sensational 0.81 ERA and 0.798 WHIP in those 11 home starts. Bet the Dodgers -145! 

15* ROYALS/INDIANS MLB SHARP WINNER on Indians -165

My money is on the Indians to cash in a win at home against the Royals. Really an easy play here given the talent gap between these two teams and the guys they are sending out to the mound. Indians' Zach Plesac is 6-4 with a 3.64 ERA and 1.224 WHIP in 15 starts he's also 2-0 with a 2.87 ERA in 3 career starts against the Royals. KC counters with Jake Junis, who has an ugly 5.68 ERA in 10 career starts against the Indians. Bet Cleveland -165! 

20* YANKEES/A' MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Yankees -108

My money is on the Yankees to cash in a win at Oakland on Thursday. Easy play here for me, as we back New York to avoid getting swept by the A's. Yankees are 21-7 in Game 3 of a series and 84-40 in their last 124 off a loss. NY has won 11 of Tanaka's last 12 starts and are 4-0 in his last 4 when he toes the rubber in Game 3 of a series. Bet the Yankees -108! 

15* NATIONALS/PIRATES MLB SHARP WINNER on Nationals -190

My money is on the Nationals to get a win on Thursday, as ace Max Scherzer makes his long awaited return from the IL. Scherzer is one of those guys that when he's healthy enough to pitch he's typically really good. Doesn't hurt that he's facing a Pirates team that has been awful since the All-Star break and have scored 1 or fewer runs in 4 of their last 5 games. Bet the Nationals -190! 

20* BREWERS/CARDINALS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Brewers +121

My money is on the Brewers to cash in a win on the road against the Cardinals tonight. Milwaukee will send out the surging Adrian Houser, who has a 3.00 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Houser had by far his best outing on the road in his last start, holding the Nationals to a mere 1 run on 2 hits in 7 innings. Bet St Louis +121! 

15* ANGELS/RANGERS MLB SHARP WINNER on Angels +131

My money is on the Angels to cash in a win at Texas. LA comes in having won 5 of their last 8 and are going to be motivated here to get a split in this 4-game set with the Rangers. it's been a rough first two starts for Patrick Sandoval, but the talent is there and it's a matter of time before he delivers a strong outing. It helps he's facing a Texas offense that has scored 3 or fewer in 3 of their last 4. Bet the Rangers +131! 

15* ROCKIES/DIAMONDBACKS MLB SHARP WINNER on Rockies +139

My money is on the Rockies to cash in an upset win on the road against division rival Arizona. Colorado has been playing much better with 4 wins in their last 5. Hard to not take a shot with them here with the Dbacks sending out Alex Young. In his last 3 starts he's 0-3 with 6.91 ERA and 1.675 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bet the Rockies +139! 

20* INDIANS/METS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Indians -136

My money is on the Indians to cash in an easy win here at New York. While Cleveland is playing their second straight series on the road, they haven't left the Big Apple as they just got done playing 4 games at the Yankees. Mets have cooled off some after their big run and I just don't see them winning this one with Steven Matz going up against Shane Bieber. Bet the Indians -136! 

20* BREWERS/CARDINALS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cardinals -125

My money is on St Louis to cash in a win at home against the Brewers. I just think this is a really great spot to fade Milwaukee. Brewers pitching staff is hurting right now. Milwaukee sent out 9 different relievers for 10 innings of work in Saturday's 15-14 win at Washington. They were taxed again yesterday, as starter Chase Anderson only got 7 outs before getting pulled. Lot of offense figures to take place with the heat expected in St Louis and I look for the Cardinals' bats to light up Zach Davies and the Milwaukee pen. Davies has allowed 18 runs on 20 hits in his last 13 innings of work. Bet the Cardinals -125! 

15* WHITE SOX/ANGELS MLB SHARP WINNER on Angels -161

My money is on the Angels to cash in a win at home against the White Sox. Angels will send out Griffin Canning, who is 3-1 with a 3.75 ERA and 1.161 WHIP in 9 home starts. Chicago will turn to Dylan Cease, who has a 5.62 ERA and 1.500 WHIp in 3 road starts. LA is a solid 63-29 in their last 92 games when listed as a favorite of -125 to -175. Bet the Angels -161! 

20* PADRES/PHILLIES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Phillies -104

My money is on the Phillies to bounce back from Saturday's defeat with an easy win here at home against the Padres. Just too good price to pass up with Philadelphia. Phillies are playing well having won 4 of 5 and San Diego starter Joey Lucchesi is a mere 1-4 with a 6.15 ERA and 1.367 WHIP in 10 road starts. Jason Vargas has a 2.35 ERA and 1.151 WHIP in home starts this season. Bet the Phillies -104! 

20* DODGERS/BRAVES MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Dodgers -143

My money is on the Dodgers to cash in a win over Atlanta on Saturday. LA cruised to a 8-3 win on Friday and should have no problem getting a victory in this one. To say the starting pitching matchup favors LA would be an understatement. Dodgers send out Hyun-Jin Ryu, who has arguably been the best pitcher in the league. His league best 1.45 ERA is almost a full run better than the next best pitcher (Soroka and Scherzer at 2.41). Ryu's 0.93 WHIP is second only to Verlander (0.84). Atlanta counters with Mike Foltynewicz, who has allowed more runs (54) in 13 starts than Ryu has all season (29). Not to mention a 8.81 ERA and 1.761 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bet the Dodgers -143! 

15* CARDINALS/REDS MLB SHARP WINNER on Reds +108

My money is on Cincinnati to cash in a win here at home against the Cardinals. Reds have gone a very respectable 9-4 in their last 13 home games and while St Louis even the series last night, the Cardinals are just 1-6 in their last 7 road games vs a team with a winning home record. Big key here is the road woes of St Louis starter Miles Mikolas. He's 2-7 with a 6.34 ERA and 1.509 WHIP in 12 road starts. That's 2 runs more than his 4.13 ERA for the season (24 starts). Cincinnati should not be a dog here. Bet the Reds +108! 

15* METS/ROYALS MLB SHARP WINNER on Royals +174

My money is on the Royals to cash in a win here as a big home dog against the Mets. New York should be favored, but not this much. the value is with Kansas City in this one. Royals will send out lefty Mike Montgomery, who is hot at the moment with a 3.31 ERA and 1.225 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Mets have lost 4 straight road games vs a left-handed starter and Montgomery has a 2.45 ERA in 2 starts vs the Mets. Bet the Royals +174! 

20* CARDINALS/REDS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cardinals +142

My money is on the Cardinals to cash in a win as a big road dog against the Reds. St Louis has won 5 of their last 6 and will send out the red-hot Adam Wainwright, who has a 2.65 ERA in his last 3 starts. St Louis is 11-1 in Wainwright's last 12 starts vs an NL Team that is slugging .325 or worse and 14-3 in his last 17 vs a team that averages 7 or more strikeouts. Bet the Cardinals +142! 

20* WHITE SOX/ANGELS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on White Sox +158

My money is on the White Sox to go into LA and secure a win Thursday night against the Angels. Chicago has been playing well of late. They have won their last two and are 7-4 in their last 11. They will send the red-hot Reynaldo Lopez out for this one. Lopez has a 2.65 ERA in his last 3 outings. LA starter Andrew Heaney has a mere 5.13 ERA in 5 home starts. Bet the White Sox +158! 

15* DODGERS/MARLINS MLB SHARP WINNER on Marlins +241

My money is on the Marlins to cash in a win as a massive home dog against the Dodgers. I gtet the line with how much of a public play the Dodgers are, but LA is literally on cruise control right now and it would be easy for them to come out flat here after winning the first two games in the series by a combined score of 24-2. As soon as this is over they hit the road to Atlanta for a big showdown against the NL East leading Braves. Miami also has a stud on the mound in Caleb Smith, who owns a strong 3.12 ERA and 1.096 WHIP in 9 home starts. Miami actually has a winning record in his 19 starts, which is impressive given they are 31-games under .500 on the year. Bet the Marlins +241! 

20* MARINERS/TIGERS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Tigers +130

My money is on Detroit to cash in a win here at home against the Mariners. I get you can't trust Tigers starter Edwin Jackson, but his first outing with Detroit in 2019 was really good. He gave up just 1 run on 4 hits in 6 1/3 innings. Seattle is also a team that has no business being this big of a favorite on the road. Mariners are 2-8 in their last 10 and have just 11 wins in their last 45 road games. Bet the Tigers +130! 

15* CUBS/PHILLIES MLB SHARP WINNER on Phillies -114

My money is on the Phillies to cash in an easy win at home against the Cubs. Chicago is just not a good road team. They lost the opener at Philadelphia last night and are now just 10-23 in their last 33 on the road. Add in the Phillies are 22-6 in their last 28 at home against a team that's won fewer than 40% of their road games and there's really nothing to think about with this small number. Bet the Phillies -114! 

25* METS/BRAVES NL EAST PLAY OF THE MONTH on Mets +122

My money is on the Mets to return right back to their winning ways with a win over NL East leader Atlanta on Tuesday. New York will have a clear edge on the mound with Zack Wheeler facing off against Max Fried. Wheeler is 3-0 with a 1.33 ERA and 0.935 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Fried has a 4.32 ERA and 1.261 WHIP in his last 3. Bet the Mets +122! 

20* RED SOX/INDIANS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Red Sox -110

My money is on the Red Sox to cash in a much-need win on the road against the Indians. After losing the last two at home to LA over the weekend the narrative around this Boston team is they got no shot at getting back to the postseason and defending their World Series title. Sitting 7.5-games back of the Rays for the final Wild Card spot doesn't look promising, but no way is this team throwing in the towel just yet. Indians are a team they are chasing and I like them to take the opener here, as I could see Cleveland coming out a little flat after their recent 4-game series against division rival Minnesota. Bet the Red Sox -110! 

15* ROYALS/WHITE SOX MLB SHARP WINNER on Tigers +110

My money is on the Tigers to cash in a win at home against the Royals on Sunday. While KC got the W on Saturday, Detroit has won 3 of their last 5 and will have the edge on the mound in this one. Tigers will turn to Daniel Norris, who has a strong 3.18 ERA and 1.176 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Royals counter with Jake Junis, who has a 5.21 ERA and 1.474 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Bet the Tigers +110! 

20* NATIONALS/METS MLB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nationals +181

My money is on the Nationals to put an end to this ridiculous run by the Mets and avoid the sweep with a win on Sunday. There's just too much value here with Washington at this price. I know New York will have reigning Cy Young winner Jacob deGrom on the mound, but Nationals Anibal Sanchez has a strong 3.00 ERA and 1.111 WHIP in his last 3 starts. Mets are also a mere 3-7 at home as a favorite of -110 or more this season with deGrom on the mound. Bet the Nationals +181!
