4* Money Maker
(MLB) Houston vs. NY Yankees, 10/16/2017 4:08 PM, Score: 1 - 8
Money Line: 120.00 Houston (Away)
Result: Loss
Taking the ASTROS tonight. So MLB faves are something like 19-4 this postseason. It is safe to say it has not been a great playoff run for us, although we did hit some RL games early last round. In this spot, I think the value is on Houston. I am in NJ. I like the Yanks. I have the 'local' flavor of how people perceive things. But when the locals and the talking heads agree that this is going to be a 'series' and the Yanks came back against 100+ win Indians team, well, I am against that line of thinking. First off. Tanaka and Sevie have better stuff than CC right now. I don't think he will be able to dance around this lineup. I think it is clear after the last 2 years that the Indians have a real problem closing out teams. This Astros team is built for right now. They are good. I can't take last series and apply it to this one. Yea, Yanks playing with house money. But honestly, I can see a sweep here depending how this game goes tonight. A really tough loss and I think that NYY is flat in Game 4. We might have a shot at some in-game betting to salvage this dog if things get ugly early. That being said though, I can see the Astros hitters getting through against CC tonight. 4* Money Maker HOUSTON ASTROS
