alex the manoah

Las Vegas - First, the baseball diamond, and we're gonna rock the Blue Jays over the A's. Alex Manoah gets the start for Toronto and he was simply a BEAST in his last start against the Yankees. He allowed ONLY one hit through six innings and posted seven Ks. That's exactly what we saw from Manoah at the end of last season, when he closed with four straight wins, and allowed only five earned runs over 26 innings for a skinny 1.73 ERA. And oh yea, he put the letter K on the board 35 times in those 26 innings. Yea, THIRTY FIVE. Gimme the kids from Canada for the money.

Dribbling down to Miami and gonna invest some cash in the Heat over the Hawks. Give Atlanta props for winning the two play-in games, but beating the Cavaliers was a so what, and squeezing past the Clippers WITHOUT Paul George was no biggie. Now the Hawks will head to Florida WITHOUT John Collins and Clint Capela who suffered a knee injury in the game against Cleveland. Miami is at full strength and won three of four in the regular season. Gonna be tough for Atlanta to find 27 points and 19 rebounds without Capela and Collins. Bringing the Heat to my bank account!
