Las Vegas - Drew Smyly has been around for quite a while (since 2012) with quite a few teams (Tigers, Rays, Rangers, Phillies, Giants, Braves and Cubs). But 2023 is looking like his best year ever. Smyly is 5-1 with a very solid 2.93 ERA. On the other side of the field, Cincinnati's Graham Ashcraft is getting absolutely HAMMERED. He has been RIPPED for 20 hits and 14 earned runs in 10 innings the last two times out.

Las Vegas - Lacing up the skates, staying home in Vegas tonight and dropping some love/chips on the Golden Knights. We know that the Knights are MONEY at the Fortress, winning nine of the last 11, but there's also another category that has provided a nice bump to the bank account. When Vegas has a chance to clinch a series, they KNOW how to CLINCH. Against Winnipeg, the Knights closed out that series with a 4-1 win. Against Edmonton, the Knights closed with a 5-2 W.

Las Vegas - Flying out to Anaheim and gonna throw a few coins at the Los Angeles Angels. Still confusing to think about the Angels as an L.A. team when they are 27 miles from downtown Los Angeles, which is like an hour and change car ride depending on how bad the traffic is on the I-5 Freeway. What's not confusing is the one/two punch of Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani. These guys are heating up and the Halos are on a tear, winning six of the last seven.

Gonna study HARD but might throw a few pennies at the 49ers/Bills matchup at THIRTY to ONE!

Las Vegas - Minnesota is going through a bit of a rough patch, losing four of the last five (not including last night). The good news is, the Twins will send Joe Ryan to the mound and he has been money. Ryan comes in with a gorgeous 6-1 record and a very skinny 2.25 ERA. Not that it matters, but just for a little context, Joe was born in San Francisco, went to Sir Francis Drake High School in San Anselmo, California and was drafted by the Giants in the 39th round of the 2014 MLB draft.
