100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Nationals +125 After another come-from-behind win on the road, the Nationals (93-69) won Game 6 by a score of 7-2 to send the World Series to a deciding Game 7. It all boils down to this as the Nationals now go into Houston one last time for a showdown with the Astros (107-55). Juan Soto and Anthony Rendon will be looking to stay hot after delivering a Game 6 win on the back of a masterful start from Stephen Strasburg. Soto hit the go-ahead home run, and Rendon did just about everything else by going 3-for-4 and earning five RBIs. On the mound we’ll have Nationals right-hander Max Scherzer (11-7, 2.92 ERA) up against Astros right-hander Zack Greinke (18-5, 2.93 ERA). It must feel like destiny for Scherzer, who was unable to pitch in a Game 5 he was scheduled to start after neck and back spasms rendered him unavailable. With 34 strikeouts in 25 October innings, Scherzer owns a 2.16 ERA in his five appearances this postseason. Featuring a five-pitch arsenal, Greinke will hope for similar results from his Game 3 outing. In that contest, Greinke was able to put out fires throughout his 4 2/3 inning start in which 10 Nationals reached base but only one run was scored. |

10-29-19 | Nationals +165 v. Astros | Top | 7-2 | Win | 165 | 13 h 6 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Nationals +165 If the Astros (107-55) can earn the first home victory of the series, they’ll become World Series Champions. We’ll find out if they can capitalize on their 3-2 lead tonight when they host the Nationals (93-69) in Houston. Game 5 never felt like a fair contest once Washington pitcher Max Scherzer was unable to go. So, rather than a Game 1 rematch, Gerrit Cole was able to dominate the game while fill-in pitcher Joe Ross struggled against a strong Houston offense. After three straight losses, the Nationals will now aim to get back on track by sending out right-hander Stephen Strasburg (18-6, 3.32). With an ERA of 1.93 this October and a career ERA of 1.34 in his postseason career, there aren’t many pitchers Washington would rather have on the mound. Strasburg has already defeated the Astros once in this World Series by settling in after a first-inning home run to throw six innings of two-run ball in a Game 2 victory. Opposite Strasburg will be Astros co-ace Justin Verlander (21-6, 2.58 ERA). With a loss in Game 2, the Houston right-hander became the first pitcher in MLB history to lose his first five decisions in the World Series. In six career World Series starts, Verlander is 0-5 with a 5.73 ERA. |

10-26-19 | Astros +106 v. Nationals | Top | 8-1 | Win | 106 | 11 h 24 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Astros +106 It took three games, but the Astros (107-55) are finally on the board in the World Series. Tonight, Houston will attempt to tie the series as they get set for Game 4 in Washington. With a 4-1 victory in Game three, the Astros ensured that both teams remain yet to win a game at home in this series. In an effort to continue that streak this evening, Houston will send out right-hander Jose Urquidy (2-1, 3.95 ERA) to start. We last saw Urquidy on the mound in a relief appearance in the ALCS, pitching 2 2/3 innings and striking out five batters. Urquidy’s last start came in late September when he pitched six scoreless innings. Opposite Urquidy will be Patrick Corbin (14-7, 3.25 ERA). The Nationals left-hander hasn’t had the smoothest of postseasons, posting an ERA of 6.91. In his last start, Corbin gave up four runs in five innings against the Cardinals in the NLCS. In three career starts against the Astros, Corbin is 2-1 with a 5.21 ERA. Houston will be hoping for another big performance out of Michael Brantley, who went 2-for-4 with a pair of RBIs in the Astros victory last night. |

10-25-19 | Astros -135 v. Nationals | Top | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 13 h 58 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Astros -135 With an 0-2 series deficit and their backs against the wall, the Astros (107-55) are in desperate need of a win this evening against the Nationals (93-69) in Washington D.C. After taking surprising losses in the first two contests despite sending out Gerrit Cole and Justin Verlander, Houston needs Zack Greinke (18-5, 2.93 ERA) now more than ever. When Greinke starts tonight, the Astros right-hander will get to show off his batting prowess. With three home runs and eight extra-base hits, Greinke led all pitchers from the plate this year. Focusing on his arm, Greinke has been far from unhittable this postseason. In three starts, Greinke is 0-2 with a 6.43 ERA despite two solid performances his last two times out. Right-hander Anibal Sanchez (11-8, 3.85 ERA) will start on the mound for the Nationals. In two October starts this year, Sanchez has posted an ERA of 0.71. Sanchez last appeared in the World Series in 2012, when he threw seven innings of two-run ball. The Astros will be hoping for a good performance from Jose Altuve, who leads the team with 19 hits, a 3.58 average, and five home runs in addition to his eight RBIs in the postseason. |

10-23-19 | Nationals +170 v. Astros | Top | 12-3 | Win | 170 | 11 h 55 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Nationals +170 Most expected the Astros (107-55) to start the World Series with a victory behind the nearly-unhittable arm of Gerrit Cole. Instead, the Nationals (93-69) stole Game 1 in Houston and now aim to make it two in a row. Nationals outfielder Juan Soto was the difference maker on Tuesday, taking Cole deep to tie the game at 2-2 on his way to batting in three of Washington’s five runs. Soto, who turns 21 on Friday, leads the team with three home runs and 10 RBIs in the postseason. After handing Cole his first loss in 26 starts, the Nationals will aim to steal another game in Houston by sending out right-hander Stephen Strasburg (18-6, 3.32 ERA). Among pitchers with at least five postseason starts, Strasburg’s 1.10 postseason ERA is the third-lowest in MLB history. This postseason, Strasburg has allowed only one walk on his way to a 1.64 ERA. Right-hander Justin Verlander (21-6, 2.58 ERA) gets the start for the Astros. Culminating in a 3.70 ERA, Verlander has a couple of losses in addition to a pair of strong outings so far this postseason. After yesterday’s loss, this suddenly feels like a must-win home game for Verlander and the Astros. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Astros -183 After sweeping St. Louis in the NLCS, the Nationals (93-69) are finally going on the road to take on the Astros (107-55) in Houston for Game 1 of the World Series. On the mound, Washington will be sending out right-hander Max Scherzer (11-7, 2.92 ERA). The Nats starting pitching destroyed the Cardinals last series, and Scherzer played his part. Taking a no-hitter into the seventh, Scherzer ended the game with 11 strikeouts and just one hit allowed through seven innings. After opting to save Gerrit Cole (20-5, 2.50 ERA) and not pitch him in Game 6 of the ALCS, the Astros right-hander gets the start in Game 1. In addition to not losing a game since May, Cole has been virtually unhittable throughout the postseason. Since beginning October baseball, Cole has notched 32 strikeouts and owns a 0.40 ERA in three starts. The Nationals have counted on the offense of Howie Kendrick and Anthony Rendon throughout the postseason. While Kendrick has a team-high nine RBIs, Rendon is batting .375 with seven RBIs of his own. For Houston, Jose Altuve is the main man. With a .349 average, Altuve has hit five homers and eight RBIs in the postseason. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Yankees +134 The Yankees (103-59) will have no time to lick their wounds after going to 3-1 in the ALCS. Instead, they’ll have to defeat the Astros (107-55) this evening to stay alive. After Game 4’s 8-3 loss to Houston, the Yankees look like a shell of the team that scored a majors-best 943 runs in the regular season. After committing four errors and going 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position, the Yankees will have to be much better in Game 5 if they’ll stay alive. The first order of business for New York will be getting to right-hander Justin Verlander (21-6, 2.58 ERA), who starts for the Astros tonight. Verlander pitched Game 2 of the series, allowing only two runs on an Aaron Judge homer in 6 2/3 innings. As an Astro, Verlander has 28 strikeouts and a 1.19 ERA in three games against the Yankees. New York will be sending out left-hander James Paxton (15-6, 3.82 ERA) to start. Although he’d given up just one run on four hits, Paxton was removed from Game 2 after just 2 1/3 innings. In 15 home games this year, Paxton went 7-3 with a 3.35 ERA. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Yankees -127 A Wednesday night rainout has pushed back Game 3 of the ALCS, with the winner of the series earning the right to play the Nationals in the World Series. Tonight, the Astros (107-55) and Yankees (103-59) will battle it out in New York. Throughout the series, New York has used relievers for more than 15 of the 28 innings played thus far, so they’ll be looking for theirs starters to go deeper from this point on. This evening, that job will fall to Masahiro Tanaka (11-9, 4.45 ERA), who starts again after a successful Game 1. In the series opener, Tanaka gave up only a single hit as he pitched six scoreless innings against the Astros. Over 41 postseason innings, Tanaka owns an ERA of 1.32. The Astros will counter with right-hander Zack Greinke (18-5, 2.93 ERA). In his last regular season start against New York, Greinke allowed two runs over five innings. He lasted six innings in the ALCS opener, allowing three runs on seven hits. The Yankees are 9-2 in their last 11 playoff games at home. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Cardinals +123 It’s time for a vital Game 3 of the NLCS as the Nationals (93-69) aim to extend their 2-0 series lead over the Cardinals (91-71) tonight in Washington D.C. Through two games, St. Louis has managed to score just a single run. With 2-0 and 3-1 wins, the Nationals haven’t been much better offensively, but they’ve been able to overwhelm the Cardinals’ bats in the first two games in St. Louis. Hoping to claim their first win of the series, the Cardinals will send out right-hander Jack Flaherty (11-8, 2.75 ERA) to start. Flaherty earned the win in Game 5 of the NLDS matchup against the Braves, but there was little pressure after his lineup racked up 10 runs in the top of the first inning. Still, Flaherty only allowed a single run in six innings. The Nationals are seeking series dominance, and they’ll be confident with right-hander Stephen Strasburg (18-6, 3.32 ERA) on the mound. Strasburg now has a 1.32 ERA in six career postseason games, but he did give up a pair of home runs in Game 5 of the NLDS. For the Cardinals, Paul Goldschmidt is the man to watch. In the postseason, Goldschmidt is batting .345 with four doubles and two homers. |

10-13-19 | Yankees +148 v. Astros | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 50 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Yankees +148 It was a dominant performance by the Yankees (103-59) in Game 1 of the ALCS, but the Astros (107-55) are sending out one of the game’s best pitchers when these two clubs match up for Game 2 this evening. New York’s flawless postseason run extended into the second round when they erupted for seven runs while holding Houston scoreless. Gleybor Torres was the MVP of the game, batting in five runs on a 3-for-5 performance that included a solo shot. Perhaps the most surprising part of the game was New York’s ability to hold a good Astros lineup to no runs. Hoping to blank Houston again, the Yankees will send out left-hander James Paxton (15-6, 3.82 ERA) to start. In his first postseason outing, Paxton allowed three runs while striking out eight batters in 4 2/3 innings. In a June outing against the Astros, Paxton allowed just one run. For Houston, ace Justin Verlander (21-6, 2.58 ERA) is scheduled to start. Verlander holds a 2.92 ERA in the playoffs while wearing an Astros jersey, but he only lasted 3 2/3 innings in his last outing against the Rays on short rest. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Yankees +145 In a classic matchup of power versus pitching, the Yankees (103-59) are set for Game 1 of the ALCS against the Astros (107-55) in Houston. Offensively, New York was the best team in baseball throughout the season with 943 runs scored in the regular season. With 306 home runs, the Yankees trailed only Minnesota by one. But don’t forget about the well-balanced Astros lineup that scored 920 runs this year (3rd in MLB). Houston entered the postseason with one of the most daunting playoff rotations in memory. In addition to Zack Greinke, who went 8-1 with a 3.02 ERA since being acquired at the trade deadline, the Astros can call on Justin Verlander (21-6, 2.58 ERA) and Gerrit Cole (20-5, 2.50 ERA). For the Yankees, right-hander Masahiro Tanaka (11-9, 4.45 ERA) gets the start. With a bullpen full of big arms, Tanaka will be happy with a repeat of his ALDS performance against the Twins in which he pitched five innings with seven strikeouts and allowed one earned run on three hits. Right-hander Zack Greinke (18-5, 2.93 ERA) is set to start for the Astros. Greinke started the Game 3 loss to the Rays, allowing three home runs and six total runs over just 3 2/3 innings. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Nationals +115 It took five games for both the Nationals (93-69) and Cardinals (91-71) to take care of business in their respective NLDS series. Tonight, these two clubs begin the NLCS in St. Louis. A 10-inning thriller over the Dodgers earned Washington a spot in this NLCS. The Nationals have been led by Anthony Rendon and his 7-for-20 NLDS performance that included a home run and five RBIs. Ryan Zimmerman added another homer and three RBIs, and Juan Soto hit two homers with six RBIs. St. Louis took down Atlanta with a record-setting first inning in Game 5. Both Marcell Ozuna and Paul Goldschmidt have launched two home runs for the Cardinals in the postseason. The visiting Nationals will start right-hander Anibal Sanchez (11-8, 3.85 ERA). In Game 3 of the NLDS, Sanchez gave up one run while striking out nine in five innings against the Dodgers. In his lone start against St. Louis this season, Sanchez allowed three runs in five innings. Right-hander Miles Mikolas (9-14, 4.16 ERA) takes the mound for the Cardinals. Mikolas started Game 1 of the NLDS, allowing one run over five innings against the Braves. In a mid-September start against the Nats, Mikolas gave up three runs over six innings. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Astros -260 The Astros (107-55) entered the postseason as the favorites to win the World Series. If they’re going to make it to the ALCS to face the Yankees, they’ll first need to win a Game 5 against the Rays (96-66) in Houston. This ALDS matchup started according to plan for Houston, who jumped out to a 2-0 series lead after outscoring Tampa Bay 9-3 through the first two games. 10-3 and 4-1 losses in Tampa Bay forced a fifth and final game, but the Astros will be happy this one’s at home, where they’ve gone 60-21 on the season. The away team in this matchup is likely to use multiple arms against the Astros, as the Rays have found success with that formula. However, right-hander Tyler Glasnow (6-1, 1.78 ERA) will get the start. Glasnow will be pitching on an extra day of rest, but he was beaten up in Game 1, allowing a two-run shot to Jose Altuve and allowing four hits over 4 1/3 innings of Game 1. Right-hander Gerrit Cole (20-5, 2.50 ERA) gets the start for Houston. Cole was dominant in Game 2, striking out 15 batters over 7 2/3 innings. Cole entered the series with an 0-2 record and 3.51 ERA in four career starts against the Rays, but the star right-hander is now unbeaten over his last 23 starts. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Cardinals -110 There’s a winner-take-all affair taking place this late afternoon in Atlanta as the Braves (97-65) host the Cardinals (91-71) in Game 5 of this NLDS matchup. After dropping Game 1 in a 13-run game after being outscored 4-3 in the ninth inning, the Braves responded by winning the next two games and allowing only a single total run. Game 4 was decided by just one run in extra innings as Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina tied the game on a clutch, eighth-inning hit before winning the game in the 10th with a sacrifice fly. Throughout the series, Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. has been the best player in series. In four games, Acuna Jr. is 8-for-16 with three doubles, a triple, and a homer. 23-year-old Jack Flaherty (11-8, 2.75 ERA) is expected to start Game 5 for the Cardinals. The St. Louis right-hander pitched Game 2 of the series, holding the Braves to three runs over seven innings. In two regular season games against Atlanta this year, Flaherty allowed just three runs over 12 total innings. The Braves are expected to send out Mike Foltynewicz (8-5, 4.54 ERA) for his second start of the series. In seven career starts against St. Louis, Foltynewicz is 3-4 with a 7.64 ERA, but he tossed that seven-inning, three-hit, scoreless gem earlier this series. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Yankees -140 If the Yankees (103-59) are going to sweep in the Twins (101-61) in the ALDS, they’ll have to do so in Minnesota as these teams get set for Game 3. Through the first two games of the playoff series, New York has scored a combined 18 runs while giving up six. Thus far, the Yankees are displaying their offensive prowess after finishing the regular season with the most runs scored (943 runs), while suppressing the bats of the league’s second-best offense (939 runs). Hoping to further limit the Twins lineup will be Luis Severino (1-1, 1.50 ERA). Since missing most of the season with injuries, the Yankees right-hander got off to a hot start with nine scoreless innings before a more colorful third outing. In his lone career start at Target Field, Severino allowed one run on four hits over 5 2/3 innings in 2018. Right-hander Jake Odorizzi (15-7, 3.51 ERA) will start for the Twins with the season on the line. Over his last 10 starts, Odorizzi hasn’t allowed more than three earned runs. In 18 career appearances against New York, Odorizzi is 7-9 with a 4.71 ERA. Minnesota lacks a home-field advantage, having lost 10 of their last 11 home games in the divisional round of the playoffs. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Rays +280 In this ALDS matchup, the Tampa Bay Rays (96-66) have a tough task ahead of them as they go into Houston once again for another go at the Astros (107-55). The Astros won Game 1 of the series by a score of 6-2. For the third straight year, Jose Altuve homered in the first game of the ALDS. Altuve’s dinger came in a four-run inning for the Astros; an inning the Rays couldn’t recover from. Tonight, the Rays will send out left-hander Blake Snell (6-8, 4.29 ERA) to start Game 2. The 2018 AL Cy Young Award winner pitched just 107 innings in 2019 after undergoing elbow surgery in the middle of the season. In six career starts against the Astros, Snell is 2-2 with an ERA of 4.73. Right-hander Gerrit Cole (20-5, 2.50 ERA) will start on the mound for Houston. In addition to the Astros winning each of Cole’s last 13 starts of the season, Cole earned a record of 16-0 with a 1.78 ERA over his final 22 starts. In four career starts against Tampa Bay, Cole is 0-2 with a 3.51 ERA. Tampa Bay’s offense is led by Austin Meadows, who is tops on the team with 33 homers, 89 RBIs, and a batting average of .291. |

10-04-19 | Twins v. Yankees -178 | Top | 4-10 | Win | 100 | 12 h 52 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Yankees -178 Two of baseball’s most explosive teams are set to face off in an ALDS as the Yankees (103-59) host the Twins (101-61) in New York. The Yankees finished seven games ahead of Tampa Bay to win the AL East. The Twins finished eight games above Cleveland to win the AL Central. Throughout the regular season, New York and Minnesota were battling for the honor of having the best lineup in the MLB. With 943 runs scored, the Yankees finished as the top dog in the majors. The Twins finished second with 939 runs scored. The home run title was an even closer race. In the end, the Twins hit one more homer than the Yankees with a record-breaking 307 dingers on the season. All of that adds up to a tough task for this evening’s two starting pitchers, as Minnesota right-hander Jose Berrios (14-8, 3.68 ERA) and New York left-hander James Paxton (15-6, 3.82 ERA) face off. While Berrios makes his first postseason start, he previously pitched against the Yankees in a Wild Card relief appearance. Berrios left with the loss after allowing and two-run dinger by Aaron Judge as part of three total runs. In six career starts against Minnesota, Paxton owns a 2.27 ERA. The Yankees lefty will be happy to have home-field advantage after posting a 3.35 ERA at home versus a 4.33 ERA on the road. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Braves -134 The stage is set for an NLDS matchup between the NL Central-winning Cardinals (97-71) and NL East-winning Braves (97-65) in Atlanta. While St. Louis is an average team on the road with a record of 41-40, the Braves are 50-31 at home. These two clubs met up for two three-game series during the regular season. With a record of 4-2, Atlanta won both series. The Cardinals are going with right-hander Miles Mikolas (9-14, 4.16 ERA) to start the NLDS. Making his postseason debut, Mikolas had a strong end to the regular season. Over his last six starts, Mikolas struck out 35 in 35 2/3 innings while posting an ERA of 3.03. Left-hander Dallas Keuchel (8-8, 3.75 ERA) will start for the Braves at home. Making his 10th postseason start, Keuchel is 4-2 with a 3.31 ERA in his playoff career. Over his final nine outings of the regular season, Keuchel posted a 2.55 ERA. The Braves will be in great shape if center fielder Ronald Acuna Jr. and first baseman Freddie Freeman are at full health. While Acuna Jr. led the club with 41 home runs, Freeman was tops on the Braves with 121 RBIs. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on A's -134 The stage is set for the American League Wild Card game as the Athletics (97-65) will play host to the Rays (96-66) in Oakland. Both teams will feel as though they’ve been playing playoff baseball for a while now after having to stay ahead in a tight, three-team race for two Wild Card spots. Entering October, Tampa Bay won seven of its last 10. The Athletics won 13 of their last 18 in the regular season. The visiting Rays will go with right-hander Charlie Morton (16-6, 3.05 ERA) to start. In two starts against the Athletics this season, Morton is 1-0 with a 0.68 ERA. In his seven postseason appearances, Morton is 2-2 with an ERA of 4.60. Left-hander Sean Manaea (4-0, 1.21 ERA) gets the start for Houston. Manaea has been good enough since coming off the injured list on September 1 to keep Mike Fiers from starting. In three career starts against the Rays, Manaea is 1-1 with a 2.70 ERA. Oakland will be happy to have this game at home, as Morton has never won there in three starts. In his last five road games, Morton posted an ERA of 7.52. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Brewers +170 Before getting swept by the Rockies to close out the regular season, the Brewers (89-73) closed the season as the hottest team in baseball by winning 18 of 20. Tonight, Milwaukee gets its shot against the Nationals (93-69) in Washington. This Brewers club rallied around the loss of MVP Christian Yelich, who led the team with 44 homers, 97 RBIs, and a .329 average before going down. In the end, Milwaukee finished two games behind the Cardinals in the NL Central, but three games ahead of the Mets for the second Wild Card spot. The visitors in this contest will start with right-hander Brandon Woodruff (11-3, 3.62 ERA). The Brewers are fortunate to have a deep bullpen, as Woodruff is likely to only go a few innings after recently coming back from an oblique injury. With that being said, the Brewers are 18-4 when Woodruff pitched in the regular season. At home, Washington is going with veteran right-hander Max Scherzer (11-7, 2.92 ERA). Although Scherzer has been one of the game’s best pitchers over recent years, he’s struggled in for the Nats in October. In four postseason games for Washington, Scherzer is 0-2 with a 3.72 ERA. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Twins -181 After an entire season of holding off the Indians in the AL Central, the Twins (101-60) head into the last game of the regular season against the Royals (58-103) with an eight-game lead in the division. Kansas City will play the part of the host in this contest. Although they’re still overlooked when it comes to World Series projections, Minnesota has been neck-and-neck with the Yankees all season long when it comes to the league’s best offense. The Twins have scored 935 runs (2nd) and hit 304 home runs (2nd) on the year, both trailing only New York. The Twins have a good shot at finishing the year first overall in the home run department if they can hit a few off Royals right-hander Jorge Lopez (4-9, 6.35 ERA). The Twins hit two dingers off Lopez on their way to seven runs on eight hits in his last start. That outing lasted just 2 1/3 innings for Lopez. In five at-bats against Lopez, Nelson Cruz has hit two homers. Left-hander Martin Perez (10-7, 5.13 ERA) gets the ball to start for the Twins as they rest Jake Odorizzi for the playoffs. In his last outing, Perez gave up five runs over 2 1/3 innings. In four starts in the month of September, Perez has posted an ERA of 7.00. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Braves +102 The Mets (85-76) gave it a good go in the second half of the season, but will fail to make the playoffs this year. As the season comes to a close, New York will host the Braves (97-64), who won the NL East and prepare to make a run at the World Series. As Mets fans begin turning their attention to next year, they still have something to celebrate regarding this season, as Pete Alonso has set a new rookie record with 53 home runs. Alonso leads the club with those 53 dingers and his 120 RBIs. Aiming to shut down Alonso and company will be rookie right-hander Mike Soroka (13-4, 2.60 ERA), who starts for Atlanta today. With a potential start in Game 3 of the NL Divisional Series, Soroka should be limited to 70 or so pitches in this one. In four starts against the Mets, Soroka is 4-0 with a 2.19 ERA. Right-hander Noah Syndergaard (10-8, 4.30 ERA) will start for New York. Syndergaard has been poor lately, allowing a .348 average to opposing batters while posting a 6.97 ERA over his past four starts. In eight career starts against Atlanta, Syndergaard is 0-2 with a 3.65 ERA. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Tigers +131 The Tigers (47-113) have been the worst team in baseball, but they have a chance to close out the season with two straight wins as they take on the White Sox (71-89) in Chicago in the final contest of the season. Right-hander Spencer Turnbull (3-16, 4.59 ERA) will start the final game of the season for Detroit. Turnbull hasn’t earned a win since the last day of May, but he’s been good as of late. Over his last two outings, Turnbull has given up a total of three runs over 11 innings while notching 13 strikeouts. At home, the White Sox are scheduled to send out Ross Detwiler (3-5, 6.85 ERA) to start. The Chicago left-hander faced the Tigers in early July when he held the opposition to two earned runs over six innings, but didn’t figure into the decision. The Tigers haven’t enjoyed a ton of success this year, but Miguel Cabrera is still getting it done for his club. With a .281 average and 58 RBIs, Cabrera leads Detroit. Brandon Dixon has been the next-best hitter for the Tigers, batting in 52 runs while racking up a team-best 15 homers on the season. Center fielder Victor Reyes is batting .320 with a home run and three RBIs over the last seven days for Detroit. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Padres +149 The Padres (70-90) will be aiming to finish the season on a strong note after a run of four straight losses. San Diego will have a chance to take down the Diamondbacks (83-77) in Arizona this evening. Right-hander Garrett Richards (0-1, 11.81 ERA) will start for the Padres tonight. It’s been a short, up-and-down season for Richards, who’s been poor in one outing and solid in another. Richards hasn’t made it through the fourth inning in either of his first two starts, so don’t expect a lengthy outing in this one. The Diamondbacks will counter with left-hander Robbie Ray (12-8, 4.28 ERA). Ray’s last outing was against the Padres, in which he allowed four runs over 5 1/3 innings, although he did notch 10 Ks. Ray will be looking to add to his career-high 225 strikeouts in his final start of the season. Over his last three starts, Ray is 0-1 with a 7.50 ERA. In 15 career starts versus San Diego, Ray is 5-5 with a 4.15 ERA. Eric Hosmer, who leads the Padres with a .267 batting average, has hit two home runs in just 12 at-bats against Ray. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Braves +103 The Braves (97-73) have won the National League East and have their sights set on the postseason. However, they’ll head into New York to take on the Mets (84-76) first. The Mets won the first game of this series by a score of 4-2. After this matchup, only one regular season game remains for both Atlanta and New York. Mets rookie slugger Pete Alonso has now hit 52 home runs after knocking one out yesterday. If Alonso can hit another in one of the final two games, he’ll set the new record for homers by a rookie. Hoping to avoid such a record setting game will be Mike Foltynewicz (8-5, 4.46 ERA), who starts for the Braves tonight. The Atlanta right-hander faced the Mets in late August when he allowed just one run on two hits over seven innings. Over his last six starts, Foltynewicz has put up an ERA of 1.19. Left-hander Steven Matz (10-10, 4.37 ERA) is scheduled to start for New York. Matz will be pushing a couple of career highs this evening as he adds to his 154 1/3 innings pitched while making his 32ndappearance of the season. In 12 career starts against Atlanta, Matz is 5-2 with a 3.22 ERA. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Cubs +178 The Cubs (83-77) picked a bad time to hit a rough patch. Before yesterday’s win over St. Louis, Chicago had lost nine straight. Meanwhile, the Cardinals (90-70) have watched their lead in the NL Central fade to just one game above the Brewers as St. Louis has dropped three straight. The Cardinals will host the Cubs this evening with just two games remaining on the season. The visiting Cubs will send out Cole Hamels (7-7, 3.92 ERA) to start. The Chicago left-hander is making his final start of the season after skipping his last start with fatigue in his left shoulder. In 15 innings against the Cardinals this season, Hamels hasn’t allowed a single earned run. Right-hander Adam Wainwright (14-9, 3.98 ERA) gets the start for St. Louis. Wainwright had a tough game his last time out. In five innings against the Diamondbacks, Wainwright allowed five runs and two walks. In four starts against the Cubs this year, Wainwright is 1-2 with a 3.91 ERA. The Cubs will likely be without full services from Anthony Rizzo, Kris Bryant, and Javier Baez. While Baez has been pinch running, the other two are unlikely to see any game time. |

Oakland is scheduled to send out right-hander Mike Fiers (15-4, 3.91 ERA) to start. In his last outing, Fiers held the Rangers scoreless over eight innings. After today’s outing, Fiers will be the likely starter for the AL Wild Card game on normal rest. In three outings versus the Mariners this season, Fiers is 1-1 with a 5.79 ERA. In 11 career starts against Seattle, Fiers is 3-2 with a 6.15 ERA. Left-hander Justus Sheffield (0-1, 6.10 ERA) will start for the Mariners at home. In his last outing, Sheffield allowed four runs on five hits in 4 1/3 innings against the Orioles in Baltimore. This will be Sheffield’s first game against the Athletics. Over the last seven days, shortstop J.P. Crawford has been the Mariners’ best bat, hitting .250 with a homer and five RBIs. On the season, Crawford is batting .231 with seven home runs and 45 RBIs. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Padres +120 Entering a new series on the back of three straight losses, the Padres (70-89) will be going into Arizona to take on the Diamondbacks (82-77). Despite being outscored in head-to-head matchups against the Diamondbacks 80-57, the Padres are even on the year against Arizona with a record of 8-8. Left-hander Eric Lauer (8-10, 4.53 ERA) will be on the mound to start for the visiting Padres. Just recently, Lauer’s been able to get his fastball up to 96 mph, which has earned him more swings and misses. Lauer has a record of 2-3 and an ERA of 2.88 in six career starts against Arizona. Right-hander Taylor Clarke (5-5, 5.40 ERA) starts for the Diamondbacks at home tonight. Clarke hasn’t started a game since the middle of August. In that time, he’s made seven relief appearances, posting a 4.55 ERA in that role. In one at-bat against Clarke, Hunter Renfroe blasted a solo shot earlier this year. Renfroe leads San Diego with 33 home runs on the season. First baseman Eric Hosmer is tops in the club in batting average (.268) and RBIs (97) among qualified batters. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Rays -190 Although they’ll be on the road, the Rays (95-64) know they hold their playoff destiny in their own hands going into the final series of the season against the Blue Jays (65-94) in Toronto. Cleveland is two games back of Tampa Bay for the second Wild Card spot in the AL. It’s largely been pitching that got the Rays into playoff contention, so they’ll hope for more of the same from right-hander Tyler Glasnow (6-1, 1.92 ERA). Glasnow has pitched eight innings in three starts since coming back from the injured list. In that time, he’s struck out 17 and allowed only two total runs. Right-hander T.J. Zeuch (1-1, 4.58 ERA) will start on the mound for the Blue Jays. Against AL East competition, Zeuch has posted a 4.61 ERA. In his last outing, Zeuch allowed two runs over four innings to the Yankees. He’ll be facing Tampa Bay for the first time in his career. The Rays enter this three-game series having beaten the Yankees and Red Sox in their last three games. Over that stretch, Tampa Bay held their opponents to just five total runs. Watch for Austin Meadows, who’s batting .446 with seven homers and 16 RBIs in 65 at-bats against Toronto. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Mariners +225 The latest installment of Thursday’s games will pit the Athletics (95-63) against the Mariners (66-92) in Seattle. Oakland has lost two of its last three games, scoring no more than three runs in any one of them. In all likelihood, this will be the final game in a Mariners uniform for the man the fans affectionately call “King Felix.” Felix Hernandez (1-7, 6.51 ERA), the Seattle right-hander, is set to hit free agency after 15 years with the Mariners. Hernandez spent much of the year on the injured list, and is 0-3 with a 6.51 ERA since returning to the rotation. The former AL Cy Young winner is 169-135 with a 3.42 ERA in his 15 seasons in Seattle. The crowd will be with Hernandez, and very much against Sean Manaea (3-0, 1.14 ERA), who starts for Oakland. This is the Athletics left-hander’s final start of the regular season, with his availability for the AL Wild Card game in focus for Oakland. In his four starts since returning from shoulder surgery, Manaea has allowed only three runs. In 10 career starts against Seattle, Manaea is 5-4 with a 3.90 ERA. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Rockies +113 Through two games of a three-game series, the Rockies (68-90) and Giants (76-82) have each won one. This afternoon in San Francisco, they’ll play one more time to see who wins the second-to-last series of the season. While pitching has let the Rockies down, the lineup definitely hasn’t. With 814 runs scored on the year, Colorado ranks ninth in the majors. Meanwhile, San Francisco ranks 28thwith just 668 runs scored this season. Kevin Pillar leads the Giants in most batting categories with his .262 average, 21 homers, and 85 RBIs. The Rockies are led by the duo of Charlie Blackmon, who owns a batting average of .316, and Nolan Arenado, who’s hit 41 home runs and batted in 118 runners. Colorado will be sending out left-hander Kyle Freeland (3-11, 6.84 ERA) to start. Although Freeland didn’t go very long in his return from the injured list in his last outing, he was effective. Over two innings, Freeland held the Dodgers scoreless. Expect Freeland to be limited to 60 or fewer pitches today. Right-hander Tyler Beede (5-10, 5.23 ERA) will start for the Giants.

09-25-19 | Red Sox -150 v. Rangers | 10-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 5 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Red Sox -150 Including yesterday’s 12-10 win over the Rangers (75-82), the Red Sox (82-75) have won two of their last three games. Boston will be on the road to face off against the Rangers in Texas again tonight. The Red Sox have only 22 more home runs than the Rangers on the season (238-216), but they’ve scored nearly 100 more total runs this year (876-778). Much of that Red Sox offensive production has come from Rafael Devers, who leads the club with 114 RBIs and his .309 batting average. Starting on the mound for Boston will be Rick Porcello (13-12, 5.56 ERA). The Boston right-hander has made 158 starts for the Red Sox in five years, earning a record of 72-55 with an ERA of 4.43 in that time. As Porcello makes what could very well be his last start in a Boston uniform, he’ll try to replicate his last outing in which he held the Rays scoreless over six innings. Left-hander Kolby Allard (4-1, 4.25 ERA) will start for the Rangers at home. After starting hot for Texas, Allard has been poor lately. Over his last two outings, Allard is 0-1 with a 6.00 ERA. In three starts at home, Allard has posted an ERA of 7.36. |

09-25-19 | Cubs -189 v. Pirates | 2-4 | Loss | -189 | 11 h 5 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Cubs -189 The Pirates (66-91) claimed the opening game of the series against the visiting Cubs (82-75) yesterday. Tonight, these two clubs face off once again in Pittsburgh. Although Pittsburgh is 32-44 at home, Chicago is just 31-45 on the road. Led by Kyle Schwarber’s 37 home runs and Anthony Rizzo’s .294 average and 94 RBIs, the Cubs have the edge offensively. With 791 runs scored and 249 home runs hit on the season, Chicago has been significantly better than the Pirates, who’ve scored 736 runs and hit just 161 homers. On the mound to start for Chicago will be Jon Lester (13-10, 4.51 ERA), who’s been good against Pittsburgh this year. In four 2019 starts against the Pirates, Lester is 3-0 with a 3.20 ERA. In his last outing, Lester went five innings in which he struck out five and allowed a single run to the Reds. Opposing Lester will be Pittsburgh right-hander Dario Agrazal (4-5, 4.08 ERA). Don’t expect Agrazal to make it through six innings, as the pitcher hasn’t managed to claim an out in the sixth frame since late July. Since rejoining the Pirates starting rotation last month, Agrazal is posting a 6.94 ERA. |

09-25-19 | Phillies v. Nationals -156 | Top | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 12 h 5 m | Show |
100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Nationals -156 With yesterday’s doubleheader wins over the Phillies (79-78), the Nationals (88-69) booked their ticket to October baseball whilst simultaneously knocking Philly out of contention. Tonight, the Nats will aim for a victory lap win over the Phillies in Washington. Philadelphia enters this contest as losers of their last four games, three of which have come against Washington. The Nationals enter on a three-game winnings streak. The visiting Phillies will send out Drew Smyly (4-7, 6.44 ERA) to start. The Philadelphia left-hander has tallied a 5.82 ERA in his last nine starts. In his last outing, Smyly didn’t make it out of the third as he allowed the Indians to rack up four runs on five hits. Right-hander Anibal Sanchez (10-8, 3.91 ERA) is scheduled to start for Washington. Sanchez is 0-2 against the Phillies this season, but he’s been very good as of late. Over his last three starts, Sanchez is holding opposing batters to a .188 average and posting a 2.37 ERA. Although Phillies slugger Bryce Harper leads the club with 34 homers and 109 RBIs, he’s been poor against tonight’s starter for the Nats. In 12 at-bats against Sanchez, Harper is batting just .083 with zero home runs. |

Over the past seven days, Harper is batting .348 with two homers and six RBIs. |

09-24-19 | Twins v. Tigers +220 | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 37 m | Show | |
50* Powerhouse Play on Tigers +220 As the Twins (96-60) keep a hold on their four-game lead in the AL Central and push closer to a playoff berth, they’ll begin a new series against the Tigers (46-109) in Detroit. On the mound for Minnesota will be Jake Odorizzi (14-7, 3.59 ERA). The Minnesota right-hander has given up just two homers in his last nine starts, and is set to better that mark against a Tigers lineup that’s hit just 145 homers on the year. Odorizzi has notched 26 strikeouts in 16 September innings of pitching, but he hasn’t completed six innings in any of those three starts. In his last start, Odorizzi allowed two runs over 5 2/3 innings. In an early September outing against Detroit, Odorizzi gave up three runs over five innings. Right-hander Spencer Turnbull (3-15, 4.66 ERA) will get another start at home. So far, he’s winless in his 15 home starts with a 5.08 ERA. His 0-10 record at Comerica Park includes a six-run outing against the Twins to start September. In his last outing, Turnbull was good against a strong Indians team. Over five innings, Turnbull allowed just one run. |
