10-23-20 | Dodgers v. Rays +146 | 6-2 | Loss | -100 | 28 h 21 m | Show | |
This gamecomes after the only scheduled off day in the first five meetings of this series. This will surely benefit the Rays, which played a few more games over the postseason. Starters appear to be Morton and Buehler here. The Rays have won Morton's last five starts as the RH has not allowed more than three earned runs over his past 11 appearances. Buehler has been just as impressive, but has had limited outings over his last six starts. To win here, you need your starters to go a little further in the game than what the RH has been doing. Tampa Bay is 5-1 the last six interleague games, 5-2 the last seven interleague games as a 'dog, and 13-5 the last 18 overall as an underdog. I'm staying with Tampa Bay here even if these starters don't go. Take the RAYS. Thank you. | |||||||

We have been crushing it in the MLB playoffs and today, I have my NLCS GAME OF THE YEAR. It doesn't get any bigger or better than this. This one big win will make your season. Take Atlanta. This is my NLCS GOY. Game 905. 1:35 pm pst. Sports betting is about situations and matchups. You may love one team today and hate them tomorrow. Well, this is a perfect example. It looks like Walker Buehler and Max Fried will be on the mound here. I am not looking to take away anything from Buehler and the Dodgers but, in this repeat of the Game 1 matchup, I am going with Fried and the hungry Braves and the Game 1 matchup to repeat itself. Fried showed no fear facing LA, going 6.0 strong IP, yielding just four hits, and striking out nine batters. He has the confidence of that series-opening victory carrying him over in to this game. Going back to last season, Atlanta has taken five of seven over LA, are 16-6 the last 22 vs. the NL West, and 8-2 the last 10 overall. Like this matchup. Like Fried. And like the Braves here. Take Atlanta. Thank you. | |||||||
10-14-20 | Rays -140 v. Astros | 3-4 | Loss | -140 | 10 h 32 m | Show | |
With Zack Greinke and Tyler Glasnow probable starters here, we have one of the most seasoned and experienced playoff pitchers against one of the least. However, neither possesses stellar playoff numbers. The former-Cy Young Award winner, Greinke, has had another tumultuous season. The Houston Astros, however, after losing four consecutive starts by the RH, have now won his last two starts, but both ND's. The Tampa Bay Rays have won an astounding 11 straight games that Glasnow has appeared. A streak going back until the beginning of August. The Rays are 5-1 the last six meetings with the Astros, 6-1 the last seven playoff games, and 5-1 the last six vs. the AL West. There are exceptions to every rule. I am a firm believer in postseason experience. But, Greinke is shaky. So, I must side with the hotter Glasnow here. TAMPA BAY RAYS | |||||||
10-14-20 | Dodgers -180 v. Braves | 15-3 | Win | 100 | 7 h 3 m | Show | |
Kyle Wright and Julio Urias are probable's for Wednesday. The Dodgers, Urias is 5-0 this season with the team winning each of the last two game he appeared. But, the Braves have won Wright's last four starts, as he went, 3-0 with a ND. The two top-scoring offenses in the Major's are facing each other here. With the Los Angeles lineup being held to just one run in the series opener, and a close call yesterday, I feel that their powerful bats have to break out big time here. So, why not against the less experienced and less consistent, Kyle Wright. The Dodgers are 5-2 the last seven playoff games. I still side with LA's bats to come alive here. LOS ANGELES DODGERS | |||||||
10-13-20 | Rays v. Astros -101 | 5-2 | Loss | -101 | 8 h 33 m | Show | |
Down 2-0, the playoffs savvy Astros bounce back here. Urquidy has been a much stronger pitcher than Yarbrough. Look for the Houston bats to exploit Yarbrough and get them a much needed win here. They are 8-2 L10 as an underdog and 8-3 L11 following a loss. HOUSTON | |||||||

They have more postseason experience, have the better starter, and faced and beaten this team in past playoffs. Valdez and Snell are slated to start here. The Astros saw and bested Snell in last year's playoffs. Houston is a bit hotter and has more postseason experience. They are 8-0 L8 playoffs as a dog, 4-1 L5 vs. AL east, 48-20 L68 vs. LH starters, and 5-1 L6 overall. Take the Astros. Thank you. | |||||||

New York, which has more postseason experience, starts a pitcher with significantly more playoff proficiency. Gerrit Cole owns a career, 8-4 record with a 2.75 ERA in 12 postseason starts, striking out 99 batters in 78.2 IP. Tyler Glasnow is 2-2 with a 6.00 ERA in four career postseason starts, with only 18.0 IP. These two met a year ago when Cole was with the Astros in the 2019 ALDS Game 5 matchup. Cole fired eight strong innings to beat Glasnow and the Rays, 5-1. The Rays are 5-11 L16 Divisional Playoff games and 0-4 L4 during game 5 of a series. The Yankees are 5-2 L7 Divisional Playoff games and 36-16 L52 playoff games as a favorite. take New York. Thank you. | |||||||
10-07-20 | Padres v. Dodgers -189 | 5-6 | Win | 100 | 8 h 25 m | Show | |
San Diego vs. Los Angeles at Globe Life Field: Clayton Kershaw has been named a starter. The Padres have been keeping it close to the vest as far as naming starters lately. To me, in this contest, it doesn't matter. There are many naysayers out there that won't give Kershaw his due respect. In his 11 starts in 2020, the team is 9-2 behind him. In 10 of those 11 starts, he allowed three or less earned runs. Over his career, the 32-year old has amassed a 175-76 record with a 2.43 ERA. Granted, his postseason stats are less impressive, but he did blank Milwaukee in the Wild Card round, 3-0, allowing just three hits, striking out 13, and walking only one, in 8.0 IP. San Diego was one of this season's most exciting teams and certainly a fan and bettors favorite, especially after the trade deadline. But yet, LA took six of the ten regular season meetings and Game 1 of this series yesterday, 5-1 and have had their way over the years in this division rivalry. The Padres are 3-8 the last 11 playoffs games. The Dodgers are 11-4 the last 15 Divisional Playoff games. I'm siding with Kershaw and the Dodgers. LOS ANGELES | |||||||

Oakland vs. Houston at Dodger Stadium: With probable starters, Luzardo and Yrquidy here, postseason experience is huge. Jesus Luzardo has only two playoff appearances (one start) of a mere, 6.1 IP. The LH had a mediocre 3-2 record with a 4.12 ERA in the 2020 regular season. But, the team lost five of his final seven starts after winning his first three outings. He must now take the hill in a postseason game against the very dangerous Houston lineup, chock full of seasoned veterans. Jose Urquidy has five postseason appearances (two starts) , donning a 1-0 mark with 15 K's in 14.1 IP. With more playoffs experience and savvy pitching at Doders Stadium will benefit him as it is known as a pitchers park. The Astros are 9-2 the last 11 Divisional Playoff games and 5-1 the last six vs. teams with a winning record. The A's are 2-6 the last eight Divisional Playoff games and 2-8 the last 10 overall playoff games. ASTROS | |||||||

Take Oakland. Game 1 WINNER. 1:07 pm pst. Oakland has taken of the 10 meetings with Houston in 2020. Both starters are solid in McCullers and Bassitt. McCullers (3-3, 3.93) has pitched well however, despite only allowing a total of three ER's over his last four starts, the team, due to a lack of offense, is 0-4 over those four starts. Bassitt (5-2, 2.29) has pitched equally well, yielding a combined, two ER's in his last five starts. The difference is the team has been hitting for him, as they are 5-0 in those five starts. The Astros are just 11-21 on the road this season while the A's own a 23-10 home mark. Take Oakland. Thank you. | |||||||
09-30-20 | Cardinals v. Padres -155 | 7-4 | Loss | -155 | 6 h 22 m | Show | |
Game 1 Cardinals at Padres: These two teams have not met in 2020, but going back a few seasons, San Diego has taken six of the last eight meetings with St. Louis. The Cardinals have scheduled Kwang Hyun Kim, who began the season as the teams closer and is making his first MLB playoffs start. To me, both items play a factor here. The 32-year old rookie has pitched well, going 3-0 , with a 1.62 ERA in eight appearances (seven starts). Pitching well in the regular season is one thing. But, making your postseason debut against the Padres in Petco is a whole different monster. The LH will most-likely face mainly RH sluggers here. San Diego possesses a dangerous lineup, ranking in the top-five in most categories and averaging over 5.42 RPG. I expect "KK" to feel the pressure and get into some early trouble. The Padres, which want to make the most of their first postseason since 2006, are less fatigued than the perennial postseason Cardinals, which were forced to play 53 games in 44 days, including 11 doubleheaders. The struggling St. Louis offense is no match for Fernando Tatis Jr. and the mighty San Diego bats. PADRES | |||||||

The Twins (36-24) are certainly hotter, winning five of their final seven games while the Astros (29-31) have been struggling all season long and ended the regular season losing five of their last seven outings, including their final three. Greinke (3-3, 4.03) and Maeda (6-1, 2.70) square off here. With the hotter team, the better starter, and the far superior bullpen, Minny is the play here.

Don't get me wrong, they are a respectable, 23-24 vs. the NL East. It is when facing the Central and West (16-26 combined) that has been their demise. The big difference in this specific contest is the pitching matchup. Noah Syndergaard takes the mound at home while Dinelson Lamet climbs the hill on the road. Syndergaard owns a record of 7-4 with a 4.36 ERA on the campaign, fanning 118 batters in 119.2 IP. The RH has compiled a career record of 44-26 with a 3.20 lifetime ERA. RH, Lamet, who is making just his fourth start of the season, has an 0-2 record with an ERA of 5.14. The second year pitcher only has 14.0 IP under his belt in 2019. The Mets have a lot of pride and I feel it will show in this matchup. The Padres are 1-8 the last nine games played vs. the NL East, 1-11 in Lamet's last 12 starts, and 2-8 the last 10 games played overall. Take New York. Thank you. | |||||||
07-24-19 | Indians -131 v. Blue Jays | 4-0 | Win | 100 | 8 h 52 m | Show | |
Take Cleveland. This is my AL GOW. Game 917. 4:07 pm pst. The Cleveland Indians are just 3.0 GB the Minnesota Twins and if the season ended today, would be a Wild Card team. They have dominated the Toronto Blue Jays, winning five of six meetings this season. The Indians are a strong road team, sporting a 26-21 away mark and go into Rogers Centre and face a Blue Jays team that is just 19-31 at home. The Tribe are one of baseball's most savvy and experienced clubs and I do expect them to make a race with the Twinkies for the AL Central crown. Shane "Not Justin" Bieber takes the mound for Cleveland. The RH owns a record of 9-3 with an ERA of 3.69, striking out a whopping, 156 batters in 124.1 IP. For Toronto, Marcus Stroman gets the nod. The RH owns a record of 6-10 with an ERA of 3.06, with a mere 93 K's in 117.2 IP. Over the last two seasons, the Duke product has a record of 10-19 with a 4.30 ERA. Once he gets lit up, the Blue Jays then go to a shaky bullpen (Team ERA of 4.84, ranking 21st). On the flipside, the Indians own the #4 pitching staff in baseball with a Team ERA of 3.83. Cleveland is 7-1 the last eight games played on the road, 11-2 the last 13 games played following a loss, 7-1 in Bieber's last eight starts vs. the AL East, and 24-9 the last 33 games played overall. Toronto is 12-30 the last 42 games played vs. teams with a winning record, 15-31 the last 46 games played vs. RH starters, 2-5 in Stroman's last seven starts vs. the AL Central, and 25-50 the last 75 games played overall. Take Cleveland. Thank you. | |||||||
07-23-19 | Yankees -120 v. Twins | 14-12 | Win | 100 | 9 h 54 m | Show | |
Take New York. This is my HR play. Game 965. 5:10 pm pst. These two teams have split four meetings this season. But, the Yankees, which post a whopping, 6.18 RPG on the road, have Domingo German on the mound. The RH (12-2, 3.38 ERA TY) is 3-0 with a 1.50 ERA since returning from the injured list. The Twins send Kyle Gibson to the bump. The RH (9-4, 4.02 ERA TY) is 1-6 with a 6.50 ERA in nine career starts vs. NY. Minny is 0-7 in Gibson's last seven starts vs. New York. New York is 5-0 in German's last five starts vs. teams with a winning record. Take the Yankees. Thank you. |
