Gimme Rasmussen, Coleman & Higbee for the money!

Las Vegas - Looking at the ALCS tonight down in Tampa and gonna grab the Rays. Why? Got a few reasons. It starts with the right arm of Drew Rasmussen. Aside from Cam Schlittler, no one has been better than Rasmussen in the second half of the season. Here are the RIDONKULOUS numbers. He has not lost a game since July 9 and is on a 10-0 run, yeah, TEN & OH, including a gorgeous one-hitter against the Yankees in the ALDS. And if you're wondering why Tampa Bay has the best home record in the American League at 55-26, check out Drew's last three starts at the Trop. We're looking at a 3-0 record, 20 innings of work and one earned run (0.45 ERA) with 17 Ks. Rasmussen has faced the Guardians twice this season. The first start was in Cleveland, back on April 29. His numbers were not that good, throwing five innings and allowing six hits and two earned runs. In his second start, on July 26 at home, Drew was masterful, giving up one teeny tiny hit, zero earned runs over seven innings while posting 9 Ks. Don't care who throws for Cleveland. As long as Rasmussen is on the hill, we're expecting the Rays to shine and make a deposit into the Bank of Benj.

After digesting all the relevant stats for tonight's game, gonna try a few props instead of a pick on the game. Like the fact that Buffalo QB Josh Allen averages around 30 passes per game. Like the fact that WR Keon Coleman averages almost four receptions per game. Like the fact that Coleman Over 2.5 grabs will put some change in my bank.

On the other side of the field, like the fact that Rams QB Matthew Stafford averages around 40 passes per game. Like the fact that TE Tyler Higbee averages almost four receptions per game. Like the fact that Higbee Over 2.5 grabs will put some more change in my bank.
