SDSGS Vol. XIX

Yesterday’s Record: 2-2
Overall Record: 47-48-3 (+5.9u)

I still cannot believe what Andy Reid and the Chiefs did yesterday. The fact he did not kick that field still blows my mind and I will never forgive Reid for not letting the over hit. Also, Harrison Butker is still on my shitlist for missing all of those kicks. At least Tampa won and won my future, but after that shitty day I only have one thing to say. I’m Still Standing, let’s go win some money.

Parlay Pick: 1u to win 1.4 (+143)
Twins -169
Rays -190
Starting things off with the two MLB picks I am confident in winning and have a high money line odds. The odds for the Twins and Rays winning is too high so I just decided to put them in a parlay together. I have both these teams sweeping the first round so this should be easy money for me.

Pick #2: Athletics +109
For my first solo team pick I am going with the Athletics to win this game. I do understand why the Athletics are underdogs in this game because the White Sox have some good offensive players, but the Athletics are the better team in my mind. I like their pitching better, especially in this game, and once the bullpens get put in the Athletics get the advantage as they had the best bullpen ERA in the MLB this season (2.72 ERA). Now tomorrow I will be a little more worried about who is going to win as Dallas Keuchel is on the mound, but for today I am confident the A’s get the victory.

Pick #3: Indians -103
As I said yesterday in my playoff prediction blog, this is a very hard game to predict because both teams have been very streaky this season. It’s hard to trust whose offense is going to be better, but for today I am going with Cleveland. I do think this is going to be a low scoring affair with both Bieber and Cole having good games, but once the bullpens come in, the Yankees are screwed. The Yankees ranked 16th in bullpen ERA with a 4.51 ERA compared to Cleveland and their 3.53 ERA. I am not saying the Yankees bullpen is bad, but the Indians have the advantage and with being from New York, I hear so many bad things about the Yankees bullpen. This is going to be a fun couple of game but for now I am giving the advantage to Cleveland.
