Las Vegas - A little tricky to handicap MLB games in these short best of three series, especially when we don't have the scores from the prior day. So, we have to throw down an either or. Looking at the Phillies/Marlins specifically, and if Philly lost the opener, then we would jump on 'em today with Aaron Nola. He'll be matched up against Miami's Braxton Garrett who has seen the Phils two times. And his numbers ain't that good. In his two starts, Garrett has given up 12 hits and 6 earned runs in 10 innings. That's a 5.40 ERA and that's kinda MEH. If the Phillies won the opener, then we'll just take a pass.

So, the Phillies did win the opener, but instead of taking a pass, we'll drop a few pennies on the Twinkies and Sonny Gray to send the Blue Jays back to Canada.

For your wagering pleasure, here is your spread stat of the day. Minnesota has had a VERY sad history in the playoffs, but the Twins have won nine of the last 12, so the tide might be turning.
