Las Vegas - St. Louis is not playing up to its normal standards and is sitting at the bottom of the National League East with a 27-39 record (not including last night). The only recent bright spot for the Cardinals has been Jack Flaherty. If you look at his record, 3-4, you're probably wondering if the Vegas heat has warped some of my brain cells. But stay with me. The last three times out, Flaherty has thrown a total of 18 innings, allowed 2 earned runs for a very skinny 1.00 ERA. If St.

Las Vegas - This probably sounds NUTZ, but if you don't feel it, DON'T do it. Just because it's game five of the NBA Finals, there is NO LAW that you must lay down a bet. Unless I skipped that part in the 'Handicappers Guide to the Universe.'

Las Vegas - Not many right arms throwing better than Toronto's Kevin Gausman. Check out his last three starts. Gausman has allowed only 2 earned runs over the last 19 innings for an invisible 0.95 ERA. He has also posted 32 Ks over those 19 innings. WHAT! One of those starts was against the Twins in Minnesota, and Kevin was touched for just 1 earned run over 5 innings with 8 Ks.

Las Vegas - Gimme a few brews, a few brats and a few bucks on Milwaukee. The Brewers will send Julio Teheran to the hill and despite a 1-2 record, his numbers are solid. He has started three times, thrown a total of 17 innings and allowed only 3 runs. That's a 1.59 ERA and that stat POPS off the page. Oakland will rely on Paul Blackburn to silence the Milwaukke bats, and that could be a problem since he was BOMBED the last time out, allowing 7 hits and 5 earned runs in only 5 innings.
