Cash That Ticket - Wednesday July 22nd

Munaf Manji talks betting for Wednesday.

Munaf Manji opens Wednesday, July 22 by revisiting Tuesday's winning best bet, the Phillies and Dodgers going under nine runs in a game Los Angeles closed out 2 to 1 after catcher J.T. Realmuto's late base running mistake turned into a game ending double play. He also reviews a client play that missed, an over in the Marlins and Astros game that finished 5 to 3 after Jose Altuve grounded into a triple play in the bottom of the eighth and Josh Hader closed the door for Houston. Working solo again this week while his usual co host continues to handle a personal matter, Manji says there is no rush on a return and he hopes to have company back on the show soon. He runs through a busy day of baseball ahead of the night card, including doubleheaders for the Pirates and Yankees and the Orioles and Red Sox, along with afternoon games for the Mets and Brewers, the Giants and Royals, and the Nationals and Rockies. From there he breaks down six evening matchups in detail. He opens with a rematch between the Dodgers and Phillies, Eric Lauer against Aaron Nola, pricing the Dodgers at minus 120 on the money line against a Phillies club that is a home underdog at even money, with the total at nine and a half. He walks through Lauer's turnaround since coming over from the Toronto Blue Jays, his strong recent form, and his positive history against Philadelphia, then contrasts that with Nola, who is 3 and 7 with a 5.68 ERA at home and has been especially poor at Citizens Bank Park this season. He moves next to the Twins visiting the Guardians, Bailey Ober against Slade Cecconi, in a game with the Guardians favored at home in a tight American League Central race, and lands on shopping the total rather than picking a side. He touches briefly on the Pirates and Yankees doubleheader and Max Fried's return from the injured list before turning to the Padres and Braves, Michael King against Martin Perez, where he leans on Atlanta's strong history bouncing back at home after a loss and warm, wind aided conditions to favor the total staying over. At Wrigley Field he backs the Tigers as plus money underdogs against the Cubs, Keider Montero against Colin Rea, pointing to Detroit's bullpen game the night before and calmer wind conditions as reasons to expect fewer runs after a lopsided Cubs win. He closes the card with the Marlins trying to avoid a series sweep in Houston against the Astros, Sandy Alcantara against Peter Lambert, siding firmly with Houston given Miami's struggles on the road and its recent history trying to avoid sweeps away from home. He also notes the White Sox and Rangers as one of the night's other games. For his single best bet of the day, Manji returns to the Dodgers on the money line against the Phillies and Nola for the second straight afternoon, saying he has a strong read on this series. He wraps the show by previewing a much lighter Thursday schedule of just five games, most starting early, and says he may take the day off from the podcast or pivot toward football and basketball content with the NFL season approaching. He thanks listeners for sticking with him during his co host's time away and points to the current promo code available for football season picks packages good through the Hall of Fame Game in early August.
