Wow What A Matchup, With Alot Of Other Games Going On I Will Not Touch This Game But What A Playoff Feel. Anyone Touching This One?

The Lean Would Have To Go To Oakland...right? Angles Cant Score, That Simple, But Oakland Coming Off A 4 Game Away Sweep Over Baltimore And Traveling Cross Country To A One Day Rested Angles Team...thoughts?

Currently:

Zito +109
Vs.
Colon -117

Over 7 -117
Vs.
Under 7 +107

Looks Like A Tought One....if I Had To Play It I Would Take Oak And The Over...

Angels and Fattolo Colon win this game

END OF DISCUSSION!

put me down for a rather healthy sized play on the L.A. Angels of Juneau Alaska

Great game, but I would go go with the Angles. They have their ace on the hill, they're at home, its a key game....bottom line, if Colon can't step up here, the Angles are done.

im a firm beliver in riding streaks....however....oaking flying across the country against a rested angels team is a good point... and in game one of series...the angels are 31-11...

go with the angels in this game . the under looks solid for a nice parlay.

I too usually shy away from a gm like this, but here I really like Cajones. Think LA has a little more fire power in their lineup and they ARE rested & @ home. It`s going to be a shame if both of these don`t make the POs.

I like the Angels and the over, I think the Halo's get to Zito tonight and rough him up a bit.

A's have good starting and a good closer. If Zito doesn't last 8 they give up runs.

I'm going with the Halo's here

It's a tough one.

However, can't see the Angels losing five in a row, and the A's winning seven in a row all on the road. If, I'm brave enough, might take the Angels R/L.
Good luck everyone.

Tough to go against Colon. Zito has been roughed up as of late!

Angels -1.5 is worth a shot at +180! :suomi:

Angels do win this series but lose the wildcard anyway.

I think Colon get's it done tonight but I hope in the worst way that LAA misses the wildcard by 1/2 game. Then they can look back and reflect on their poor play against Toronto, Seattle, Detroit and Tampa Bay. (all of wich I lost $ on and should have been fairly easy series wins.)
They :hump: me good and I'll be having a cool Corona :drink: when they go down.

At first glance, I liked Angels in this game tonight but after digging deeper, I truly believe As get it done tonight. The way I see this game is Anaheim has clear advantage of day off traveling back from Tampa while As played a Monday game in Baltimore and then travelled with no day off. Starting pitching matchup is fairly even but difference is the ability of the As to score runs which they have been doing in bunches of late while Angels have been feeble offensively and struggled to score runs. Angels are cold while As are hot is another factor. Even with day off advantage for Angels, I am on the hot hitting and winning team in the As.

I think Colon is too strong right now. The A's surge comes to an end in this game. I also like the fact that the Angels have seen Zito three times already this year including a few weeks ago, while the A's haven't seen Colon since April 15th. Angels get the job done tonight.

I took the A's simply because it's one of the rare opportunities to get Zito as an underdog, and there's great value in that. Bartolo has been a stud and Oakland has to travel cross-country, but this game seems to be a toss-up more than anything else, so I definitely took the opportunity to grab Zito as a dog. Wouldn't surprise me if the Angels won, but the A's were good value and have a ton of momentum. Should be a great game and a great series regardless, though.
