00:00Milwaukee and Texas.

00:01Texas on life alert right now, trying to make it into the playoffs,

00:04probably won't do that.

00:05Milwaukee, they will make it into the playoffs.

00:07Only question is, are they going to be the number one overall seed?

00:10Two left-handed pitchers on the mound today.

00:12Quintana for Milwaukee and Lats for Texas, I should say.

00:17We're up price points here.

00:19Bouncing back and forth.

00:20You see the graphic, minus 120.

00:21Some outlets, minus 115, roughly a pick-em,

00:23and a total at most outlets sitting at eight and a half.

00:27Quintana, who again frustrates me to all ends,

00:30going up against Lats.

00:30Two lefties in this game, Joe.

00:32Milwaukee getting the dub here?

00:33What do we anticipate here?

00:35Well, unfortunately for Milwaukee, they had to leave PNC Park

00:39because they never lose a game there.

00:42And they out-hit and out-scored again the Pittsburgh Pirates,

00:4619-5 over the weekend.

00:49But my goodness here, it's going to get a little tougher here,

00:52I think, in Arlington.

00:54The Rangers, what?

00:55They've climbed within, what, a game and a half of the Mariners

00:58for the last American League wildcard slot here.

01:01So they are 11-4 across their last 15.

01:05And by the way, ever since coming out of the bullpen,

01:07Bruce Pochy has taken Jacob Latch

01:10and actually moved him from being the long relief guy

01:13into a starter here, and the results have been pretty good.

01:17But I'm with you.

01:18Quintana, to me, has got regression coming.

01:21He's a contact pitcher.

01:23I don't know that that's going to play well here in this one.

01:26I like the home dog in this one.

01:28I like the home dog in this one.
