A $500 World โSeries wager hangs in the balance asโ Newโ York Post handicapperโฃ “Stitches” places bets on โthree college โคfootball favorites Saturday, hoping to โrecoup โlosses andโ avoid a self-imposed reckoning.
Despite a cardiologistS warning and hisโ own reservations,โข Stitches is wagering $100 moneyline each on Georgia Tech, Alabama, and Michigan in an attempt โto offset a significant loss placedโ on the Los Angeles Dodgers โin the World Series. He jokingly โคwarned that a failed attempt could leadโค to drastic measures.
Stitches,โ who has provided daily baseball handicapping for The โฃPost since โ2019 and won the publication’s NFL Best Bet crown โlast year, is currently โdown $799 following a Blue Jays โขvictory over the Dodgers on โfriday. He noted a poor start to the day with โBlake Snell giving up fiveโ runs โinโค five innings.
Stitches, a self-described “straight C student” in college, acknowledged the bets are a long โฃshot, stating that success wouldโ be โค”easier thanโ stealing crown โjewels from the โLouvre.”
