T.Skubal o6.5 Ks-120

Skubal will be on his job today. He’s been throwing over 7 Ks consistently since August 18th and dialed in. Should have a strong finish to his season tonight.

Do NOT bet o 18.5 Salvy owns Skubal, but Skubal should have ease w/ rest of the line up. I see him going 6 but I wouldn’t trust the 18.5 depending on where he is in the lineup starting 6.1
