Maxx's 8/11 Plays

I may add a couple more, but not much jumping out at me unless it's really expensive... and last night notwithstanding... I'm hesitant to pay put up that kind of juice based on how I've been doing. I'll go with...

ATL -176 ML to win 1 unit
ATL +115 RL risk 1 unit
Surely a day off, traveling, and facing Hanson will be enough to cool off the Nats... won't it? And even if things don't start well, teams are never out of it with the Nats bullpen.

PHI +119 risk 2 units
Both teams struggling and needing a win, the Cubs are great at home, the Phillies are great on the road, Harden is always a question mark and Happ is unproven. When everything looks like a toss-up like that... I'll go with plus money on the defending World Series Champs over a team with a 100 year curse. Plus the Cubs played an evening game out West last night while the Phils had the day off to regroup... I don't know if that truly plays out, but I always like that angle.

Some interesting late games tonight. LAA, SEA, and SF all at home as underdogs. All 3 of those are pretty good home teams and none are in a significantly unfavorable pitching matchup. I can't just pick one cause they all look about the same to me... so I'm adding.

LAA +110 ML risk 1 unit
SEA +119 ML risk 1 unit
SF +125 ML risk 1 unit

If at least one of those teams wins worst I can do is down less than one unit... I'll take that given the potential upside.
