2-0 +2.0 Units thus far this post season.
Taking....
NYY -130 Two Units
Over Eight Runs Scored Two Units
Gotta take CC at these odds. I haven't been overly impressed with the way the Angels have been playing lately. Mentally, I can't think of a time in which a team played the game more incorrectly than they have in this series. Taking extra bases, throwing to the wrong bag, throwing meat balls to hitters like A-Rod when he's down 0-2 in the count, not scoring (or trying) when you have guys on 1st and 3rd with no outs and a liner is hit that causes Teixeria to dive, and errors galore in the field. They just aren't playing fundamentally strong baseball, and the Yankees aren't the team you want to make mistakes against.
Put a few units on the over as well just as a bit of a hedge in this game. If the Yankees are to lose this game, I figure it should go over. I just don't see the Yankees getting less than 4 runs in this game, so if they lose... it should be something like 5-4 or 6-4 and I'll push. I think CC will come out looking good, but there's always a chance we see him go back to his old form with bad post season performance.
One Pending Bet:
Phillies -150 to beat LAD in series. To win Two Units
