Today’s Plays
MNF • MLB Playoffs
Chiefs @ Jaguars
4%
Pick: Jaguars +3.5 (-110)
Chiefs @ Jaguars

Pick: Xavier Worthy O52.5 Rec Yds (-115)
Chiefs @ Jaguars
2%
Pick: Travis Etienne O62.5 Rush Yds (-140)
Chiefs @ Jaguars
3% NEW
Pick: Under 46 (-120)
Why: Jags’ defense has forced 3+ turnovers in 4 straight but KC is far less giveaway-prone and more patient this year. Last week’s 37 on BAL looks more about a poor Ravens D. We project a compressed script vs. a turnover-regressing JAX.
Dodgers @ Phillies
2%
Pick: Phillies +1.5 (-150)
Dodgers @ Phillies
2% NEW
Pick: Phillies ML (+105)
Why: ~10% late money leaning PHI strengthened our +1.5 read; pairing ML (+105) with RL (+1.5) creates a 4% combined exposure with downside cover and live upside in tight bullpen games.
Dodgers @ Phillies
4%
Pick: Over 7.5 (-105)
Cubs @ Brewers
5% NEW
Pick: Over 7.5
Why: Imanaga’s recent form flags (6.51 ERA in Sept; 4 IP in WC start). If CHC fights back, it’s more likely in a run environment than a duel. Our projection pops to 8.4 runs with middle-inning leverage risk on both pens.

FAQ
Game Day Notes
Why pair Phillies +1.5 with ML?
Postseason runlines compress variance. The +1.5 covers tight relief scripts; the ML captures ceiling if our late-money read is right.
Why add Under 46 (MNF) late?
News + market drift improved price. With JAX takeaway rate due to regress and KC’s pace moderated, our total projection dropped under 45.
5% on Cubs–Brewers Over?
Top-tier only when indicators stack: starter form, bullpen leverage, weather/park, and market entry. Today they do.
