You can analyze the Jets-Patriots game all day, but truth is, that 21¹/₂-point spread all hinges on whether Bill Belichick goes to church Sunday morning and may be feeling a bit merciful. Naah!

Yankees sipped champagne this week, but they are still playing for keeps. Beasts of the East are still neck and neck with the Astros for best record in the AL. Luis Severino made his season debut after nearly a year on the shelf and had Yankee fans breathing a collective sigh of relief. Hurled four shutout innings in a limited return against the Angels. Jays had their five-game winning streak snapped Saturday. Trent Thornton has been better lately as well. He’s allowed just two runs over his past three starts. Hoping Sevy exits early, we will take the Jays for 20 units.

Cute, Cueto. Real cute. Johnny B Rotten walked five, allowed four runs over four innings and the Braves squashed the Giants, 8-1. Loss takes us to -574 mccoveys.
