3 teamer and

Las Vegas - Gonna look at a little three team 10-point teaser. Start down in Texas and drop UTSA from -13 to -3 points over Middle Tennessee State. Take Auburn and bump the Tigers from +5.5 to +15.5 points against Penn State. Finish up out West, grab Fresno State and pump the Bulldogs up from +11 to +21 points against UCLA.

Looking at the baseball diamond, it pains me to say this, but we're using the Red Sox with Nick Pivetta over the Orioles. It pains me for two reasons. First, I have a LIFE LONG HATRED for Boston, the team not the city, and second, the price is kinda steep. Why lay the heavy wood? More reasons. The Red Sox are battling for one of the wild cards, and have a gorgeous 44-29 record at home. Pivetta was all about the bagels his last time out, and did not allow an earned run over five innings. The last reason, and what put me on the Sox at any price is, Baltimore's starter, Zac Lowther. It's a small sample size, but Lowther's first two MLB starts have been a DISASTER! He saw Boston at home, and was rocked for 7 hits and 7 earned runs in just 2 innings. Then he threw against the Blue Jays, and was ripped for 4 hits and 7 earned runs in just 2 innings. So, with the help of my calculator, Lowther's combined stat line is, 11 hits and 14 earned in just 4 innings. That's a 31.50 ERA, yes, THIRTY ONE POINT FIVE OH! Don't care what the price is because it's a BUY!
