## ⚾ RED SOX: 14 STRAIGHT WINS

### One Shy of the Franchise Record

**Yesterday:** Red Sox 6, Orioles 5 — come-from-behind again. Tied it in the 7th, took the lead on a homer in the 8th. 

| Stat            | Number                                         |
| --------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| Win streak      | **14** (franchise record: 15)                  |
| Record          | 51-48                                          |
| AL East deficit | 6 games (Rays)                                 |
| Wild card       | **IN — 3rd spot**, 1 back of Guardians for 2nd |

---

### The Schedule Case

**The Sox have the 9th easiest remaining schedule in MLB.**

**The hard part:** 3 vs Dodgers, 3 vs Rays, 4 vs Yankees, 3 vs Cubs, 3 vs White Sox, 3 vs Guardians

**The soft part:** 6 vs Orioles, 7 vs Blue Jays, 7 vs A's, 3 vs Giants, 3 vs Royals, 3 vs Angels

**Scott:** "Seven games remaining against the teams ahead of them — four with the Yankees, three with the Rays. Win five of those seven and you make up SERIOUS ground. And who's to say when this team loses again?"

**Tonight:** Ranger Suarez vs Kyle Bradish — BOS -144.

## ⚾ COLBY'S POSITION: THE BOOSTED BET

### The Portfolio

| Bet                    | Odds                           |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| **Red Sox AL East**    | **44/1 (boosted from \~22/1)** |
| **Red Sox AL Pennant** | 20/1                           |

**Colby:** "Their pitching rotation is NAILS. Ton of depth, Sonny Gray looks fantastic. The only issue is the offense — it's atrocious. But they should buy at the deadline. When I bet it they were 10 games out; now it's six."

**The current number:** 10/1-12/1 depending on the book. **Colby:** "Anything above 10/1 is worth dabbling. Maybe this is a buy-high moment, but they're a very dangerous team."

---

### Colby's AL Rankings

**On the Yankees:** "As a Yankee fan — I don't believe in them. They're horrible. Without Aaron Judge, they're lifeless. No sense of urgency. You should probably be dabbling on them to MISS the playoffs."

**On the Rays comparison:** "Compare pitching staffs — I lean heavily Red Sox. The Rays' offense is better, but if Boston gets some bats..."

**The other buy:** "The best pitching rotation in the AL? The RANGERS. If you get 2023 Evan Carter, 2023 Josh Jung, keep them healthy with Langford out there — absolutely dangerous. And Skip Schumaker is a great coach. Those are the two teams for your futures portfolio."

## ⚾ THE WHEELER WATCH: THE MIZ CRACK-UP BEGINS

### Exactly What We Said Would Happen

**Misiorowski yesterday vs the Mets:** 4 innings. FOUR. (6 Ks, 1 unearned run, ERA to 1.57 — brilliant, but...)

**The report out of Milwaukee:** The Brewers WILL be monitoring his innings down the stretch.

**Scott:** "That's not a quality start. That's nowhere NEAR a quality start. And that's the guy we have to lay almost four dollars on to win the Cy Young? No, thank you."

---

### The Market Move

| Pitcher             | ASB Odds | Now                  |
| ------------------- | -------- | -------------------- |
| Misiorowski         | \-550    | \-360 (still "dumb") |
| Christopher Sanchez | +500     | +700                 |
| **Zack Wheeler**    | +1600    | **+1400**            |

**The Sanchez note:** Won last night vs the Dodgers (3 ER, 7 Ks, 0 BB) — ✅ the Phillies ML cashed for everyone who tailed.

**Tonight:** **WHEELER vs the Dodgers** (PHI -136).

**Scott:** "If he has a good start tonight, this +1400 number is NOT going to exist. He still doesn't show on the leaderboards because of innings — that changes very shortly. Go get Wheeler NOW."

## 🏈 SEC MEDIA DAYS: THE BOARD

### The Arch Manning Year?

| Team      | SEC Odds |
| --------- | -------- |
| **Texas** | +300     |
| Georgia   | +320     |
| Texas A&M | +850     |
| Alabama   | +850     |

**Scott:** "Everyone's talking about the SEC breaking away from the NCAA — let's not have that conversation. Will it be Texas's year with Arch? Will it be Georgia? More college football coming in the next few days."
