So I told you what I was betting last Sunday. I hit on my pitcher’s strikeouts parlay at +173. Unfortunately today isn’t a super strong day for pitching (I’ve still got you). I almost hit on my QB parlay, but Joe Burrow and Kyler Murray kind of sucked. Week one is hard. The Dolphins blew my early bird, and boy did they look worse than I could have imagined. All of my “safety” picks hit except for the Tigers. As for my dogs, the Browns covered and the Giants didn’t. Ok, so here’s today’s bets.
Jesus Luzardo OVER 6.5 strikeouts. Even when Jesus isn’t at his best, he piles up strikeouts. I took him at +100 on MGM.
Safety Special- Padres over the Rockies, money line. Honestly, this is a terrible bet, but I like to have at least one that should be a gimme. MGM had this -250 and FanDuel at -245. Don’t bother if you won’t put a few bucks behind it.
Strikeout Parlay- Mackenzie Gore 4+, Luzardo 6+, Gavin Williams 4+ strikeouts. These were the only three tonight that I felt reasonably decent about. FanDuel had it at +139. I generally like these bets. You take a larger number of pitchers so you can buy them down to a reasonable number of strikeouts.
Daniels and Love– I don’t particularly love anything to bet on this game. I took Love for 200+ passing yards, Daniels for 175+ passing yards, and Daniels to run for 30+. This is +118 on FanDuel. Honestly, looking over this game, I think Vegas has this one pretty well figured out.
I thought about going edgelord and betting on Washington because everyone is wrong to think the Packers are great for beating the Lions last week, but Washington didn’t look incredible in decimating the helpless Giants, and they’re on the road. I really wanted to throw you some college football action here, but I didn’t like anything for Thursday or Friday. So that’s all I’ve got until the weekend.
