10/2 Betting Winners – Phil Naessens
If you are a Premium Gold subscriber, you’ll get access to a multitude of exclusive content. One of those features is Cash with the Flash, where Phil Naessens tells you his favorite bets for the day. Obviously with the one-game Wild Card going on, it’s difficult to decide where to put your money. However, Phil hit it on the head and if you followed his bet, you’d be sitting pretty with extra money in your bankroll.
10/1 DFS Winner: Juan Soto
Premium Gold members have access to databases like our MLB Projection Model. It would be difficult to leave Juan Soto off this article for what he was able to do in the N.L. Wild Card game. The box score shows Soto as 1-for-4 with two RBI, but his production was much more than that. In the eighth inning with the bases loaded and down two, he ripped a single to right. Rookie Trent Grisham, who is essentially replacing Christian Yelich, misplayed the ball and allowed the hit to clear the bases. This gave the struggling Nationals offense life and energized the team to a NLDS matchup against the Dodgers.
Outlook for the rest of the season: Juan Soto was the hero that Washington needed last night. The Brewers were shutting down the Nationals offense with ease for most of the game and their 20-year-old stud outfielder literally saved their entire season. Soto only had six total bases in five games against the Dodgers during the regular season so expect him to struggle a bit throughout the NLDS.
10/2 DFS Winner: Yasmani Grandal
Yasmani Grandal helped the Milwaukee Brewers almost steal the Wild Card game last night. Grandal finished 1-for-3 with a home run, two RBI and a walk. The home run was an early blow as many expected Max Scherzer to dominate, but after Grisham worked a walk to to open the game, Grandal homered on the first pitch he saw. The catcher has a mutual option for 2020 so this potentially could be his final game with the Brewers.
10/2 DFS Winner: Lucas Pouille
Another hit from our Cash with the Flash article as Lucas Pouille defeated Yoshihito Nishioka rather covincingly 6-1, 6-2. His next matchup will be in the quarterfinals against top seeded Novak Djokovic early Thursday morning.
