GAMBLING GUIDE
Jerry Bo's Bookie Busters: Weekend edition soccer plays
Aug 24, 2018, 6:58 am
The weekend is here, and we are geared up to keep moving forward with the hot streak. Thursday, I had a game circled between the Chicago Fire and Columbus Crew. As the game approached, I started having second thoughts and realized that the Over was somewhat in doubt with some of the things I read from the teams training. The match started off really slow with the first half having only 2 shots on goal for Columbus, while the Fire did nothing. Thee intermission saw it deadlocked at 0-0 and the game would end in a 1-1 draw.
I try to express the importance of picking your spots and treating it as a long-term investment. Yes, I know the action junkie that lies inside us wants to step out on a Thursday night and hit the town, but sometimes your best play is NO play. Consider yesterday a win and a lesson.

As we begin another week of MLB free agency, we still haven't seen any movement when it comes to Alex Bregman. Several reports are indicating that the market for Bregman is being impacted by Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander.
The thought being, Santander is expected to command less than Bregman, and teams are waiting to see how his market shakes out before making an offer to Breggy.
Which is interesting, because we're seeing reports about Santander softening his stance on demanding a four or five year deal. It appears he's willing to consider a shorter contract with a high yearly salary.
If that is indeed the case, should the Astros consider moving some salary if they can come to an agreement on a short-term deal with Santander?
In theory, trading Pressly's $14 million contract along with Victor Caratini's $6 million dollar deal could allow them to pay Santander $20 million. Of course finding a club to take on all of Pressly's money may not be realistic, but if they could pull it off, should they do it?
This move would weaken the bullpen and the depth at catcher, but the team still has Caesar Salazar to back up Yainer Diaz. And both Pressly and Caratini aren't likely to be back with the Astros anyway after their contracts expire after the 2025 season.
Should we be worried about the Rangers?
MLB Network's Robert Flores (huge Astros fan) joined the Locked on Astros YouTube channel last week and said he likes the Rangers chances to win the AL West this year, despite Vegas giving Houston better odds to win the World Series. Does he have a point?
Farewell to Justin Verlander
Verlander signed a one-year deal with the Giants last week, so it appears he's played his last game in an Astros uniform. But should we close the door on him being traded to Houston again if the 'Stros need another starter and the Giants are looking to move him at the deadline?
Plus, we share some of our favorite Verlander moments from the team's dynastic run!
Be sure to watch the video above as the guys from Stone Cold 'Stros break it all down! And be sure to share your favorite Verlander memories in the comment section on YouTube.
