Gerrit Cole is rolling along with a six run lead and Aaron Boone takes him out, and turns the game over to the Yankees MLB leading bull-pen. Then all hell broke loose, and with it, likely, their season. The Marlins come up with a five spot in the bottom of the ninth to win it.

When you lose three games this way in one day, all in space of twenty minutes:

  1. Astros leave 10 on base, 0-9 with RISP, lose 2-1
  2. Yankees blow five run lead in the bottom of the ninth -league’s best bull-pen
  3. A’s blow six run lead in the bottom of the ninth to a bottom feeder

…It’s not your day.

Astros at Marlins (-140)

Framber Valdez is still this team’s ace. The Astros are sixth in the league in home runs averaging 1.3 per game. Miami has hit just .152 as a team lifetime against Valdez. Houston has averaged 7.3 runs per game over their last seven games hitting .286 as a team with a non-base percentage .371.

After yesterday’s baseball debacle, we are trying to win a game.

Pick: Houston (-140)
