A Look At Saturday’s Slate

This is no : head over to your favorite sportsbook on Saturday for some of the best lines in the industry on a day filled with MLB playoff action, some college football wagering and concluding with the first Saturday of the NHL season and some MMA action at UFC 136.

MLB Betting
