00:00Welcome to the BetQL Daily Boost, I'm Lucy Burge of BetQL and I'm joined by Matt Horner
00:09and we have a home run parlay odds boost for all of you today.
00:13It is on two Yankees, who you may have heard of, Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton to each
00:19hit a home run.
00:20This is boosted to plus 1,100 at Caesars, Matt, what do you think of this boost?
00:2611-1, I tell you what, 11-1, you best not be putting more than like some beer money
00:31or some pizza money on it because obviously, not incredibly likely to happen.
00:35One, it's a playoff game, these games are usually lower scoring but, you know, the Yankees
00:39offense is fantastic, they're going up against a right hander today.
00:43The Yankees offense against righties has been, well, incredible this season, 120 WRC+.
00:49We know Judge and Stanton can both just bomb home runs left and right.
00:54Judge in the playoffs hasn't been the greatest in the world, Stanton has been lighting it
00:58up, I mean, he's been hitting homers left and right, so he's been clutch.
01:01So I mean, it's 11-1, guys, so maybe, you know, some pizza money, beer money, something
01:07like that, but the value's there, so I wouldn't mind it.
01:10Yeah, and I will say, I did have Juan Soto to hit a home run yesterday and he did do
01:14it, so that home run did hit, so home runs are being hit.
01:19They're going to pay, how much are they going to pay him, Juan Soto, they're going to pay
01:22him so much money.
01:23Like a billion dollars, I would think, probably.
01:25So home runs are being hit by Yankees in this series, so it's not out of the question that
01:30this could hit, though, that's why it is 11-1.
01:33So get in on this boost, plus $1,100, add Caesars, and take advantage of our offer from

02:04And follow us on Twitter, we have our favorite bets for today as well, and I am going with
02:13a home run, but it is on a guardie, and it is Josh Naylor to hit a home run.
02:17Naylor, I hardly know her home run tonight.
02:19Naylor is in a bit of a slump here, he has, he doesn't have a hit in his last couple
02:24games, it's been a long time since his last home run, but I think this is a fantastic
02:28spot for him to finally contribute in the series by hitting a home run, because up against
02:33Garrett Cole, he has hit three home runs already, and also has two doubles and a single, so
02:38I like Josh Naylor to hit a home run tonight.
02:42Yep, don't mind that at all, going up against Garrett Cole, I think there's value in the
02:47Guardians and the Moneyline at this type of number, about plus 146 or so, I just think
02:52that's too much.
02:53The Yankees obviously should be favorites, they're at home here, and they are the overall
02:58better team, but I just think there's value at that type of number.
03:01Garrett Cole is going for the Yankees today, he honestly hasn't been that impressive, his
03:06numbers have actually gone down in terms of his expected ERA and his expected FIP over
03:11the last three years.
03:12I'd rate him much more of a, you might want to say good pitcher, someone like an Aaron
03:18Nola maybe, or someone like that, rather than a Paul Skeens type of dominant guy.
03:24He's just not that pitcher anymore, and his numbers have kept going down, his velocity
03:28is down, which is again, I like his under 5.5 strikeouts as well.
03:32The Guardians don't strike out a ton, and plus Cole just doesn't have his strikeout
03:38stuff like he used to.
03:40So, under 5.5 strikeouts, I think the Guardians are just too much value there at that type
03:44of number, at plus 146, I'd sprinkle that for maybe, you know, like 0.7 of a unit or
03:50so, just to win one unit on the Guardians money line, but I do like Cole under 5.5 strikeouts,
03:54so those are going to be my two favorite bets today.
03:57Love that.
