Tuesday Results (1-4) -$18,420 . MLB Playoffs (22-21) -$4,310
Fast start for me once again and now I have seemed to hit a wall.... here are my results from Tuesday. Anyone can together a nice write up and think more about picking winner and not fancy write up!!!
5k Cleveland +111 (Lost)
5k Cleveland Under 7.5 -105 (Winner 6 Runs)
At this point I feel the best play is Cleveland as they have all the momentum with the red hot Corey Kluber on the mound. Kluber has been incredible this Postseason, tossing 13.1 shutout innings, which included 6.1 scoreless innings against the Blue Jays in game one, so I am very confident siding with him. Also, Sanchez was roughed up big time in his lone Postseason start, surrendering six runs in 5.2 innings, and I can’t trust the young pitcher in an elimination game after his performance against Texas. Plus, the Indians bullpen has been unhittable, as the trio of Shaw, Miller and Allen have combined to toss 11.1 innings of one run ball in this series. The Blue Jays offense has struggled and I have no reason to believe that will change in game four, and I think the Indians punch their ticket to their first Word Series appearance since 1997.
Cleveland is:
5-0 in their last five road games against a right handed starter.
10-1 in Kluber’s last 11 starts after a Quality Start in his previous appearance.
6-0 in their last six games when their opponent scores two or fewer runs in their previous game.
Toronto is:
2-10 in their last 12 games against a starter with a WHIP of less than 1.15.
1-4 in their last 5 games after scoring two or less runs in their previous game.
7k Chicago -111 (Lost)
5k Chicago -1.5 +156 (Lost)
5k Chicago Over 6.5 -113 (Lost 6 Runs)
While the Cubs put together an anemic offensive performance in Game 2, it’s important to realize that came against Kershaw, who is still one of the elite pitchers in the majors. Hill had a career resurgence at 36 this year in the regular season but has looked markedly average in his two postseason outings. With the season on the line in Game 5 against the Nationals, manager Dave Roberts yanked him after 2.2 innings. That doesn’t scream confidence. For all the hoopla about the Dodgers’ Game 2 win, they had only three hits themselves. Cubs starter Jake Arrieta gave up six hits and two runs in six innings of work in his first playoff start against San Francisco. Dodgers starter Rich Hill hasn’t lasted long in either of his two starts, getting pulled twice early in the NLDS against the Nationals and giving up five earned runs in seven innings of work. Take this one over the total.
Chicago is: Cubs are 19-6 in their last 26 games following a loss.
Cubs are 21-6 in their last 27 after scoring 2 runs or less in their previous game.
Los Angels is:
Dodgers are 1-4 in their last 5 games following a win.
Dodgers are 2-6 in their last 8 games following an off day.
Dodgers are 0-4 in their last 4 when their opponent allows 2 runs or less in their previous game.
