Today: LAA RL (-122)
I know TB has been much better post AS break but theyre still the Drays and theyre still playing for nothing.Hendrickson has his moments (has a great outing vs the LAA about a month ago) but the meat of the Angel lineup have some stiff numbers against him.In the last 10 games the TB pitching staff is allowing batters to hit .308.Not good going up against a red hot Angel team who has the playoffs in thier sights.LA is batting .292 (over .300 vs LHP) and scoring 6.22 rpg in thier L10 contests.Also the Drays still lead the league in most walks allowed and least walks drawn.Colon goes for the Angels....had a hiccup the start before last and bounced back nicely.It was his only blemish in months IMO.Back to business after a dominant start LTO.Now Bartolos at home where he's 10-5 w/ 3.46 (incidently Hendrickson road #s: 6.75 era, .335 OBA, 1.70 whip, 12 HRs in 74 road ip and only 1 in 5 starts being deemed "quality") with a 5:1 SO/BB ratio.In his career vs TB (12 starts) hes 8-0 and every game won was by 2+ runs.So it seems that the question is will the Angels win? I think so: 16-7 in September, 51-31 @ home and 10-2 vs TB in LA L3Y (4-1 this year).One more thing,there is really no comparison in BP....LAA have been solid as of late and extremely efficient at home.
