Weaver vs Romero. Weaver w/ a 1.04 WHIP, 1.48 ERA, 1.2 ER, 0.6 HR, 1.6 BB, 6 SO, 7.1 Inns/g ave in his last 5. Romero w/ a 0.93 WHIP, 2.47 ERA, 2 ER, 0.6 HR, 7.4 SO, 7.1 Inns/g ave last 5. Very similar with the very slight edge going to Romero. Angels batting .228, .294 OBP, 3.6 r/g while Toronto batting .226, .321 OBP, 4.3 r/g ave last 10. Weaver is a hot candidate for the AL Cy Young and has dominated against Toronto..."He's 7-1 with a 2.68 ERA in eight career outings in this series." Bautista is in a slump and I see the Angels going in the right direction while Toronto is heading the other way. It may even come down to the pens, advantage Angels. Angels TT U, Tor TT U, U7 and Angels win 3-1.
Beckett vs F. Hernandez. Beckett w/ a 0.91 WHIP, 1.85 ERA, 1.4 ER, 6.8 Inns/g ave last 5. Hernandez w/ a 1.30 WHIP, 3.80 ERA, 3 ER, 7.1 Inns/g ave last 5. Sox should dominate this series. Under and Boston 3-1.
Scherzer vs Guthrie. Scherzer w/ a 1.16 WHIP, 3.09 ERA, 2.2 ER, 6.4 Inns/g ave last 5. Guthrie w/ a 1.29 WHIP, 4.11 ERA, 3.2 ER, 7 Inns/g ave last 5. Tigers batting .251, .321 OBP, 3.6 r/g while Orioles batting .238, .293 OBP, 4.4 r/g ave last 10. Penny and Simon just pitched and the Tigers could only muster a 5-4 win in a close game. Throw in Scherzer and Guthrie and I expect a total going under 9. Tigers on paper should win this game. Guthrie has been known to blow up and give up a lot of runs. Look for him to hold the most losses at 16 after this game. U9 and Detroit 5-2.
Lewis vs Cahill. Lewis w/ a 1.16 WHIP, 3.22 ERA, 2.4 ER, 6.2 Inns/g ave last 5. Cahill w/ a 1.93 WHIP, 7.81 ERA, 4.6 ER, 5.1 Inns/g ave last 5. Went with Oakland in the first game of the series and McCarthy just blew it. Both pitchers have good records against the opposing team and both have been struggling recently. Cahill has been the more inconsistent of the two. Going with the better bats, Texas wins and the Over hits 7-2.
Hammel vs Garcia. Hammel w/ a 2.04 WHIP, 9.00 ERA, 5.2 ER, 5.2 Inns/g ave last 5. Garcia w/ a 1.44 WHIP, 3.25 ERA, 2.2 ER, 6.1 Inns/g ave last 5. Pujols finally broke out of his slump going 4 for 4 on Thurs and 2 for 4 on Fri. "Holliday is hitting .382 with four homers and 11 RBIs in nine games" while Freese "is batting .375 with four homers and 16 RBIs in 18 games." Nuff said. I'll eat the juice on this one. StL 7-4.
