Las Vegas - You might not know how to spell his name, or, pronounce his name, but Mike Foltynewicz can throw a baseball. His first start was against the Blue Jays and it was kinda ugly. He was roughed up for 4 hits and 4 earned runs in just 4 innings. After five days rest, Folty bounced back with a gem against the Padres, allowing only 2 hits and 1 earned over 7 innings.

Then, as you probably heard, superstar guard, Jamal Murray, tore his ACL last night and is gone for the rest of the season. Saw the Nuggs plummet all the way to 50/1 at a few joints, but not gonna invest. OUCH!
Read MoreLas Vegas - Bouncing on to the NBA hardwood out West and gonna roll with the Celtics over the Blazers. Like many of the teams, Boston has had to deal with numerous health issues, but it looks like the tide has turned. The Celtics have won and covered five of the last six including a 105-87 blowout on Sunday afternoon against a VERY good Denver team.
