Las Vegas - Gonna throw down early in the National League and late in the American League. Dropping some love on the Brewers with Adrian Houser over the Cardinals. Houser is not on anyone's list of the best arms, but he has been rocking the party the last three times out, allowing only 3 earned runs over 18 innings for a gorgeous 1.50 ERA.
Miles Mikolas has not posted a win for St. Louis since July 25, and his last three starts have been atrocious. How bad Eck? We're talking 22 hits and 15 earned runs in just 16 innings of work. Just one thing left to say, and my thousands of readers in Philly would appreciate it...YO ADRIAN!!!

Out West in the A.L., gonna roll with the Angels and Andrew Heaney over the Rangers. Something about Texas brings out the best in Heaney. He just saw the Rangers in Arlington on August 20, and allowed only 1 earned run over 8 innings with 14 Ks. And Los Angeles picked up a 5-1 win. He faced Mike Minor in that game, and Minor was LIT UP for 10 hits and 6 earned runs in 5 innings. OUCH. If you're in Vegas, I'll be the one wearing a HALO!
