Las Vegas - Gonna roll with a double digit dog and try the Bengals +11.5 points over the Ravens. So, we're going back to basics, which means back to Baltimore. The first four weeks, we were on or against the Ravens for our best bets, and it worked out to a 4-0 perfecto. Last week, we put the Cowboys on top as the BB and as we all know, it didn't work out. So, we come back to the Ravens, and do NOT think they're worth 11.5 points, 12 if you buy the hook, against a division rival.

Las Vegas - And as you know, I was born & raised in the Bronx, and BLEED pinstripes, so gonna have to take a pass on the Yankees/Astros. However, if the Nationals lost the opener last night, then we're all over Mad Max Scherzer in game two.

Las Vegas - Two underdogs come through the National League Division Series to move on to the National League Championship Series. Amazing. The Cardinals ended Atlanta's dream with an historic 10 run first inning. The Nationals clawed back from a 3-1 deficit, tied it at 3-3 against Clayton Kershaw, then got a grand salami from Howie Kendricks in the 10th inning. So, momentum? Uncle Mo is split right down the middle. The pitching matchup, Miles Mikolas against Anibal Sanchez is a tough call.

Las Vegas - Is 17 points a bargain? After looking at all the stats, gotta say, OH YEA! Born & raised in New York, I've been a Giants fan since they played in the old Yankee Stadium. Even went to a few games, and sat in the cheap seats, and you could exit the stadium right from the field. Enough of me, and more of the Patriots. Yes, the Pats have played the weak sisters of the NFL for sure, posting a 5-0 record against teams that have a combined won/loss mark of 5-18.

Las Vegas - Can't pronounce his name, but gonna roll with the Braves and Mike Foltynewicz over the Cards and Jack Flaherty. Same matchup as game two when Atlanta posted a 3-0 victory. Folty was brilliant, throwing 7 innings, allowing only 3 hits and O earned runs with 7 Ks. And speaking of zeroes, Mike with the long last name has NOT given up an earned run at home in his last three starts with 20 innings worth of bagels. After a lousy early season loss to St.
