This is VSiN, the SportsBetting Network. This is Cashing Out with your host, Dustin Swedelson, on VSiN, the SportsBetting Network.

Dustin Swedelson (0:18)

It's Cashing Out, I'm Dustin Swedelson, VSiN, the SportsBetting Network. Appreciate you hanging out with us all night long as we broadcast from the Circus Sportsbook in downtown Las Vegas.

And we've got a lot going on here. We've got the baseball postseason, by the way, the Dodger season on the brink. Brewers win 6-2, in game three, they lead the series three games to none. We've got College Football just about every single day. The NFL obviously owns Thursday, Sunday, Monday, and the NBA is back very, very soon to break it all down. Let's go out to the progressive guest line. Welcome in one of our own. He is VSiN betting analyst, Wes Reynolds. You can follow him on X at WesReynolds1. And if you come to VSiN Pro, there's probably no one that is more valuable to the vsin.com picks page than Wes Reynolds. He's up there, he's atop the leaderboard every time you refresh it. And he joins us now here on Cashing Out. So before I get to everything that I just brought up, let's start with the baseball.

Level of surprise, Milwaukee's potentially going to the World Series. Three games to nothing, they lead the Dodgers. How shocked are you?

Wes Reynolds (1:21)

I don't know if I'm totally shocked. I didn't expect him to be up 3-0, but if you watch the regular season, because what we've been seeing is the regular season, those teams get penalized because they have buys and they have time to rest and they lose their rhythm. But Milwaukee has been the best team in the National League all year because they do all the little things, Dustin. They don't make errors.

They have good at bats like Bowers tonight, just kind of hung in there, hung in there, hung in there, and then eventually gets a pitch and hits a home run off Snell. So they put the ball in play. They don't make errors. They're good defensively. They manage their bullpen, even though I was a little bit critical the night of Pat Murphy when he kind of pulled Gasser after he gets Freeman. It's like, OK, he's got five. So now he's done. I was like, I think he's doing OK here. And then they put Uribe in and he got a little dicey. And they had a deal hauled with this curveball working to get him out of the jam. So the Brewers just do all the right things, man. And they do it better than I think anybody in the league.

Dustin Swedelson (2:23)

Yeah, it's good to see the smaller markets when we're begging for a salary cap. We are going to potentially have one of the lower payrolls in Milwaukee, taking on an even lower payroll in Cleveland or a similar one in Tampa Bay.

It's a win. Now, no one's going to watch and people are going to complain about that. But it's going to be a good thing for baseball and everyone complaining that they want a salary cap.

Wes Reynolds (2:44)

It's very much going to be Thunder Pacers of the NBA Finals two years ago where it's like, oh my God, no one's going to watch. I was like, this series is going to end up being a banger like it was when it went to seven games. So I think we'll get a hell of a world series if I had the fact that we don't have a real big market team.

Dustin Swedelson (3:00)

Totally agree. Wes Reynolds is with us. VSin betting analyst. At Wes Reynolds One, you can find them on X. And speaking of the Indiana Pacers, you had a nice ride up in the VSin NBA betting guide. Go to vsin.com/subscribe. Check out the NBA betting guide. You've got futures bets, way to attack the awards markets, win totals, breakdowns of every single team. Plus, how does the new draft lottery rules, how do they impact how these teams are going to play and how we bet them going forward? vsin.com/subscribe. That's vsin.com/subscribe.

You wrote about your Indiana Pacers. Now you are a former Indiana Pacers employee. I should bring that up. However, 43 and a half wins. Tyrese Halliburton's coming back.

Not only do you like the over, but how far do you want to take this? Eastern Conference, Halliburton 151 for MVP. How crazy can we get here with your guys?

Wes Reynolds (3:47)

I think that they could get to these finals. And look, this isn't being a homer here. This is buying low on the Pacers, because if you look at all the projections, Dustin, a lot of you guys are like, Pacers are going to win 39 games at the Ringer and espn.com and all the different publications. And it's like they don't realize that the core of this team is still together and they've upgraded at center with Zubac, I think, over Turner. Now he's not going to be able to stretch a full and shoot the three as much. He'll make some, by the way. He never really had to do that with the Clippers because he kind of was like clogging up the paint while you had Hardin and Kawhi were like the mid-range merchants. But now you've got guys that can shoot the three. Tyrese, just from what little I've seen in the preseason so far, it looks like he's back moving and going anywhere he wants to on the floor at any given time. And I trust Rick Carlile. He's one of the best coaches in the league. And I think they've got a deep team. Adding Kelly Oubre, by the way, is gonna be a sneaky good signing. Jarrus Walker, young guy, got a lot of minutes last year. So this is a team that can go nine deep, just stay healthy.
