    The Inside Pitch w/Josh Towers Sep 23, 2024
    Show notes

    Former MLB Pitcher Josh Towers and Scott Seidenberg go over the importance of the final week of the MLB regular season as the Postseason picture shapes up!

    In this episode, Scott Seidenberg and Josh Towers dive into the thrilling final week of the 2024 MLB season. They discuss the playoff picture, team performances, and individual player highlights as the season nears its end. Major topics include the Yankees' playoff push, the Orioles' collapse, the AL Wild Card battle, and the potential for two pitchers to win the Triple Crown.

    The Yankees, who are just a win away from clinching the AL East, are discussed with personal insights from Towers. He recalls how players' mindsets shift during this crucial week. While the Yankees prepare for postseason success, the Orioles have dramatically fallen, dropping to the bottom of key offensive and pitching metrics since August 21st, making Scott’s under 90.5 wins bet on them likely to hit.

    A key focus is the Wild Card race, particularly between the Royals and Tigers. Detroit has been on fire since mid-August, tying Kansas City for the second and third Wild Card spots. In contrast, the Royals have collapsed with a seven-game losing streak, jeopardizing their playoff chances. Meanwhile, the Houston Astros have already secured their spot in the postseason, with Towers praising their ability to handle pressure.

    Towers and Seidenberg also discuss the potential historic achievement of Tariq Skubal (Tigers) and Chris Sale (Red Sox), who are close to becoming the fourth pair of pitchers in MLB history to both win the Triple Crown in the same season. Skubal leads the AL with 17 wins, 221 strikeouts, and a 2.48 ERA, while Sale dominates the NL.

    Betting odds and predictions are key parts of the episode. Scott breaks down playoff scenarios, noting the Tigers' -370 odds to make the playoffs, with the Royals at -155. The Mariners are extreme long shots at +1200. Discussion moves to possible World Series matchups, with a Yankees-Dodgers series being the dream scenario, given the star power and history between these teams.

    Towers also expresses confidence in the Padres, seeing them as strong contenders for the National League title. Meanwhile, Scott shares his betting success this season, highlighting a 55.8% win rate over 369 bets.

    Key Points:

    • Yankees are one win away from clinching the AL East.
    • Orioles’ collapse since August 21 has dropped them in major metrics.
    • The Tigers are tied with the Royals for the final Wild Card spot.
    • Kansas City faces a potential playoff disaster after seven straight losses.
    • The Astros have already secured their division title.
    • Tariq Skubal and Chris Sale are close to winning the Triple Crown in pitching.
    • Betting odds show the Tigers favored to make the playoffs, with the Mariners as long shots.
    • A potential Yankees-Dodgers World Series is predicted, promising a blockbuster matchup.
    • The Padres are dark horses in the NL playoff race.
    • Scott has achieved a 55.8% win rate in betting over 369 bets this MLB season.

    🏈 Brock Bowers Over 44.5 Receiving Yards: As a top target, Bowers was expected to have a big game.

    🏈 Buffalo Bills -5.5: While Buffalo was favored, Jacksonville’s desperation could make them a good underdog pick at +5.5.

    Arizona Cardinals (+3) - Uncle Dave Essler (43:46)

    Uncle Dave backs Arizona, highlighting Kyler Murray’s mobility and Arizona’s impressive defense. Goff’s inconsistency under pressure makes the Cardinals a great underdog pick against the Lions.

    -Scoring prediction

    -Best bet

    The BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth is a highlight of the DP World Tour, with top players battling for PGA Tour cards. Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, and Matteo Manassero headline the field, with McIlroy entering as a favorite after a strong showing at the Irish Open.

    Key Players and Predictions

    Rory McIlroy (02:34)

    Rory McIlroy is in great form after nearly winning the Irish Open. He has consistently finished in the top 10 at Wentworth, including a win in 2014. At +625, McIlroy is a strong pick to win, and his iron play makes him a top contender.

    Tommy Fleetwood (04:52)

    Tommy Fleetwood struggles to close at Wentworth. His inability to put together four solid rounds and poor putting form make him a risky pick this week. McIlroy over Fleetwood at -130 is a smart bet.

    Shane Lowry (06:17)

    Shane Lowry, a past champion, has shown inconsistency in his iron play. Despite finishing 12th at the Irish Open, he’s not in top form, making him a risky pick for an outright win.

    Matteo Manassero (08:05)

    Manassero, the 2013 BMW PGA Champion, is in excellent form with five top-10 finishes this season. At 40-1, he is a great value pick, especially as he fights for a PGA Tour card.

    Billy Horschel (09:45)

    Horschel’s form has been erratic, particularly with his putting. Despite winning at Wentworth in 2021, his recent struggles make him a long shot at 22-1.

    Matchups and Bets

    • Rory McIlroy vs. Tommy Fleetwood: McIlroy at -130 is a solid bet based on current form and track record.
    • Matthew Pavan vs. Tom McKibben: Pavan, priced at even money, has the edge given McKibben’s struggles.
    • Romain Langasque vs. Jorge Campillo: Langasque at -110 is favored with his consistent form over Campillo.

    Sleeper Pick

    Sepp Straka to top 10 at +320 is a great sleeper pick. Straka finished 10th at Wentworth last year and has shown improvement in his iron and putting game recently.

    Best Bet

    Matteo Manassero to top 20 at +175 is the best bet of the tournament. With his recent form and past success at Wentworth, he is poised for a strong finish.

    Conclusion

    The BMW PGA Championship promises excitement, with McIlroy as the favorite. Dark horses like Manassero and Straka offer great value. Keep an eye on matchups like McIlroy over Fleetwood, and make sure to back Manassero for a top-20 finish.

    Summary

    1. Rory McIlroy at +625 is the favorite.
    2. Tommy Fleetwood struggles to close, making him a risky pick.
    3. Shane Lowry is inconsistent with his irons.
    4. Matteo Manassero at 40-1 is a great value pick.
    5. Billy Horschel has struggled recently.
    6. Bet on McIlroy over Fleetwood at -130.
    7. Romain Langasque is a solid bet over Campillo.
    8. Sleeper: Sepp Straka to top 10 at +320.

    Top Picks and Key Moments

    Nebraska Hype (05:45)

    Nebraska’s quarterback, Dylan Riola, is compared to Patrick Mahomes, but Big East Ben is skeptical. After a dominant win over Colorado, the hype seems overblown, especially against Illinois' strong defense.

    Illinois at Nebraska (07:05)

    Illinois is an 8.5-point underdog, but Ben likes their defensive strength and quarterback play. Griffin sees this as a low-scoring affair, suggesting the under 43 points bet.

    Michigan vs USC (09:45)

    Michigan’s QB Alex Orji takes center stage, but USC’s offensive prowess may be too much. Both agree on the under 46.5 bet, expecting defenses to shine in this one.

    Utah at Oklahoma State (13:30)

    Cam Rising returns for Utah, and Ben backs Utah -2.5, pointing to their consistency. Oklahoma State’s shaky performance makes Utah a solid pick.

    Best Bets

    • Illinois +8.5 vs Nebraska: Strong defense and value play.
    • Under 46.5 Michigan vs USC: Expect defensive struggles.
    • Utah -2.5 vs Oklahoma State: Reliable team with quarterback advantage.

    Conclusion

    Week 4 offers value plays with underdogs like Illinois and low totals in games such as Michigan vs USC. Utah’s consistency also makes them a good road favorite, setting up an exciting weekend for college football fans and bettors.

    Key Points

    • 🏈 Illinois Defense: Illinois has the tools to challenge Nebraska’s offense, making them a strong pick at +8.5.
    • 🎯 PAC-12 Restructuring: The new PAC-12 lineup may breathe life into the dying conference.
    • 🔥 Nebraska Hype: Despite early season excitement, Nebraska’s potential is overhyped.
    • ❄️ Michigan’s Struggles: Michigan faces a make-or-break game, especially with a new QB in Alex Orji.
    • 💪 Clemson Skepticism: Despite high spreads, Clemson’s overconfidence could cost them against NC State.
    • 📉 Utah on the Rise: With Cam Rising back, Utah is a good bet to win against Oklahoma State.
    • 💥 Tennessee Power: The Volunteers are one of the most impressive teams this season, and they’re ready to prove it against Oklahoma.
    • 💰 Value Picks: NC State and Illinois offer potential upsets or closer-than-expected games, providing value for bettors.
    • 🔒 Under Picks: Games like Michigan vs USC and Tennessee vs Oklahoma suggest lower scoring affairs, making under bets appealing.

    Summary

    1. Illinois vs Nebraska: Expect Illinois to cover the spread at +8.5 due to their strong defense.
    2. PAC-12's New Teams: The PAC-12's future hinges on incoming schools like Boise State, with legal battles still ongoing.
    3. Nebraska Hype: Early season hype around Nebraska’s QB Dylan Riola might be unwarranted.
    4. Michigan's Quarterback Switch: Michigan is gambling on a new quarterback, but the offense might not gel fast enough.
    5. Clemson vs NC State: NC State has the potential to cover as a 20.5-point underdog.
    6. Utah at Oklahoma State: With Cam Rising back, Utah is a strong road favorite at -2.5.
    7. Tennessee vs Oklahoma: Tennessee’s offensive power makes them favorites, but expect a low-scoring game.
    8. Best Bets: Utah (-2.5) and Illinois (+8.5) are the top betting picks of the week.
    9. Under Picks: Michigan vs USC and Tennessee vs Oklahoma are likely to stay under the projected point totals.
    10. Coaching Decisions: Some teams, like Clemson, are paying for poor transfer portal decisions.

    Show notes

    RJ bell, Steve Fezzik, Scott Seidenberg and Mackenzie Rivers discuss NFL Week 2 recap. The discuss what you need to know for NFL week 3 early in the week.


    Summary: NFL Weeks 2 & 3 Recap (Speaker: RJ Bell, Steve Fezzik)

    (01:17) Pittsburgh Steelers: The Steelers' defense, led by T.J. Watt, dominated through turnovers and pressure. Fezzik upgraded Pittsburgh after initially betting under 8.5 wins. Defense remains key as they won despite being outgained by Denver.

    (03:19) Quarterback Play: RJ discussed the declining quality of NFL quarterbacks compared to the era of Brady and Rodgers. Only Mahomes consistently delivers, while Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence have struggled, especially with third-down conversions.

    (10:25) Baltimore Ravens: Despite leading the league in yards per play (6.0), turnovers and poor late-game execution plagued the Ravens. Lamar Jackson's offensive line issues contributed to his inconsistency, and Fezzik downgraded them by half a point.

    (22:34) Denver Broncos: Although Denver outgained opponents, they failed to win due to turnovers and poor execution. Russell Wilson's flashes of brilliance weren't enough, as Fezzik pointed out their yardage success was misleading.

    (05:08) Philadelphia Eagles: Sirianni's decision to throw on 3rd-and-3 with 1:46 remaining in Week 2 cost the Eagles the game. Fezzik criticized the decision, calling it "a fireable offense," as Atlanta capitalized to win.

    (59:28) San Francisco 49ers: Brock Purdy’s Week 3 was a rollercoaster. Despite strong stats (319 yards), late-game fumbles and interceptions cost the 49ers. Fezzik questioned Purdy’s ability to handle pressure.

    (16:44) Kansas City Chiefs: Mahomes pulled off a critical 4th-and-16 conversion, leading to another clutch win. Fezzik emphasized Mahomes’ unmatched ability to capitalize on mistakes, setting him apart as the best quarterback.

    (47:08) Carolina Panthers: Carolina’s reliance on analytics failed as they converted only 25% of 4th-down attempts in Week 3. Fezzik criticized their aggressive play-calling, pointing out their offense isn't equipped to execute such plays.

    Show notes

    Munaf Manji and Steve Fezzik talk NFL Week 2 aftermath. Fezzik and Munaf also do a quick reaction to NFL Week 3 and talk Vegas steak locations.

    NFL Week 2 Recap: Phony Final Scores, Betting Tips, and Quick Reactions to Week 3

    In this episode of Fezzik's Focus, Steve Fezzik and Munaf Manji provide an in-depth analysis of the key games from Week 2, focusing on misleading final scores, the impact of player injuries, and power rankings adjustments. They also offer their quick reactions to Week 3 and some recommendations for the best steak spots in Las Vegas.

    Phony Final Scores (02:34)

    Fezzik identifies several "phony" final scores where the scoreboard didn’t reflect the true game dynamics. For instance, the Las Vegas Raiders’ upset win over the Baltimore Ravens is considered misleading. The Ravens dominated in yards per play but collapsed late in the game, a recurring issue for Baltimore. Similarly, Detroit outgained Tampa Bay in yardage but struggled in the red zone, leading to a deceptive loss.

    Impact of Injuries (14:47)

    Injuries played a huge role in Week 2, particularly for the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers. The Rams were decimated, losing key offensive players like Cooper Kupp, leading to a three-point downgrade in Fezzik’s power ratings. Fezzik also points out that Bryce Young was benched in Carolina, giving the Panthers a two-point upgrade with veteran Andy Dalton starting.

    Betting Strategies (07:54)

    Fezzik emphasizes the importance of betting early to get the best lines. Using the Denver vs. Pittsburgh game as an example, he explains how the line moved from +3.5 to +2.5, showing that missing the best number can turn a winning bet into a losing one.

    Week 3 Reactions (18:16)

    Fezzik and Munaf agree that due to injuries on both teams, the best bet for the San Francisco 49ers vs. Los Angeles Rams game is the under. Both teams are struggling with offensive injuries, making it likely that scoring will be low.

    Steakhouse Recommendations (19:29)

    For those visiting Las Vegas, Fezzik recommends several steakhouse options. Ellis Island is his go-to for budget dining, while SW Steakhouse at the Wynn is a top choice for high-end dining with a great view.

    Key Quotes:

    Steve Fezzik (02:34):

    "Raiders got whomped on in the stats... Ravens collapsing in the fourth quarter, nothing new there."

    Munaf Manji (14:04):

    "Bryce Young has shown nothing so far. This is a two-point upgrade with Dalton starting."

    Steve Fezzik (18:16):

    "With all these injuries, the bet to make is the under for the 49ers-Rams game."

    The Inside Pitch w/Josh Towers Sep 16, 2024
    Show notes

    Former MLB Pitcher Josh Towers and Scott Seidenberg go over the MLB Postseason races and have a spirited MVP debate.

    Summary: The Inside Pitch with Josh Towers - MLB Postseason and MVP Race

    In this episode of The Inside Pitch, Josh Towers and Scott Seidenberg dive deep into the tight MLB postseason races and the heated MVP debate. They analyze division leaders, playoff outlooks, and key performances from players like Francisco Lindor, Shohei Otani, and Aaron Judge.

    Postseason Race Breakdown

    Scott Seidenberg (0:12) opens by discussing the current standings across the MLB divisions. The Yankees lead the AL East, while the Phillies and Dodgers are on top in the NL. As Josh Towers (1:46) points out, experience and mental toughness will determine who can handle the pressure, citing Houston’s dominance in the AL West. However, the Twins, despite leading the wild card race, may falter due to bullpen overuse and inconsistency.

    Francisco Lindor: Underrated MVP Contender

    Scott Seidenberg (11:43) makes a strong case for Francisco Lindor as a National League MVP candidate, noting his impressive stats and leadership as both a defensive and offensive powerhouse. However, Josh Towers (17:33) argues that Shohei Otani’s historic offensive season, with 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases, puts him ahead despite playing primarily as a DH.

    MVP Debate: Otani vs. Lindor

    The hosts debate the value of defense in the MVP conversation. Seidenberg (22:09) points out that Lindor’s two-way contributions at shortstop give him an edge, while Towers (16:45) believes Otani’s offensive feats make him the clear choice, despite not playing in the field.

    Yankees’ Aaron Judge in the MVP Mix

    Scott Seidenberg (15:16) highlights Aaron Judge’s consistency as a key reason he remains a strong MVP candidate. While Josh Towers (33:16) acknowledges Judge’s dominance, he also brings up Bobby Witt Jr. as a contender, particularly with his base-stealing and triple-hitting prowess.

    Detroit Tigers’ Playoff Push
