Orioles @ LA Angels

Straight away i think this is a fair price. Guthrie and Lackey look similar in stats but with the AL bats firing for the Angels, i see them gaining a win tonight. At home, the angels are solid yet on the road, the orioles are horrid, just 11 wins from 23. LA are shockingly 0-5 in Lackey\'s last 5 starts and i think that he will reverse the trend against a team hitting poorly until Boston showed up. Angels are 6-2 in their last 8 overall. Orioles are 4-10 in Guthries last 14 starts

Angels @ 13/20 Win

Mariners @ Yankees
Yankees -1.5 @ 1.74

Cant bring myself to back the Yankees on the terrible money line price of 1.33, but at 1.74 on the run line I think they're worthy of a small bet.

Sabathia starts for the Yankees and he was awesome against the Mets, allowing just 1 run over 7 innings. Vargas starts for the Mariners and is 1-3 on the road this year and is struggling...

The stats below are from cover.com and look to support a heavy win for the Yankees..

# Yankees are 5-0 in their last 5 games vs. a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30.
# Yankees are 6-0 in their last 6 vs. a team with a winning record.
# Yankees are 7-0 in their last 7 games on grass.
# Yankees are 7-0 in their last 7 overall.
# Yankees are 6-1 in their last 7 home games vs. a team with a winning record.
# Yankees are 5-1 in their last 6 vs. American League West.

# Mariners are 6-24 in their last 30 games as an underdog of +201 or greater.
# Mariners are 1-4 in their last 5 games as an underdog.
# Mariners are 5-21 in their last 26 games as a road underdog of +201 or greater.
# Mariners are 1-6 in their last 7 road games vs. a left-handed starter.
# Mariners are 1-4 in Vargas' last 5 road starts.
# Mariners are 1-4 in Vargas' last 5 starts as a road underdog.

Yankees have won 7 straight and Mariners lost 2 on the bounce, opposite form and opposite confidence should result in a victory for the home side.

I had exactly the same thought lol. Its "too obvious" but then if I didnt take and they stormed home 10-0 I'd be pretty annoyed so its worth the shot. Certainly wouldnt take the straight up odds though, they're terrible!!

I've no idea, I figured the only way the bet would go down is a 1 run win for the Yankees, couldnt see a Seattle win from anywhere Shocked

Well done on the Angels though Win

Looked at them myself but had no faith in the pitcher, so took the "safe" Yankees instead Laughing
