Betting against the sweep!

Las Vegas - Looking at the Marlins with Max Meyer over the Orioles. We've been following Meyer for a couple of weeks and he seems to be getting better with each start. Just call him the BAGEL KING. He has thrown up 12 innings worth of bagels the last two times out against the Phillies and Giants. And Max has also put 12 Ks on the stat sheet in 12 frames. The other arm, Cade Povich, has been rocked for six earned runs in 10 2/3 innings which works out to a very generous 5.06 ERA. Gimme Miami for the money, but, if the Marlins lost again yesterday, we would add a little juice to our normal bet as they look to avoid the three game sweep.
