Orioles team total over 4 (-120) & Orioles/Mariners over 8.5 (-120)
-Mariners had to to really work hard for 2 wins against the angels over the weekend. In the first 2 games of that series, mariner's closer, David Aadarsma had saves. Before sunday's game, Aadarsma was 8 for 8 in save opportunities. The mariners could not hold an 8-1 lead as the angels rallied against Olson and the mariner's bullpen. Olson allowed 5 runs and the bullpen allowed 4 runs. Aadarsma allowed 3 runs on 2 hits and 4 walks in just 0.2 innings. Aadarsma probably will not available since he has pitched 3 straight games over the weekend. The last 6 games that that Washburn has started against the orioles, they have all gone over the total.
Here are the results of Washburn's last 6 starts against the Orioles.
8/1/08 Orioles 10 Mariners 5(washburn allowed 6 runs/BP allows 4)
4/24/08 Orioles 8 Mariners 7 (washburn allows 2 runs/BP allows 6)
4/4/08 Orioles 7 Mariners 4 (washburn allows 3 runs/BP allows 4)
7/18/07 Mariners 6 Orioles 5 (washburn allows 5 runs/BP allows 0)
6/6/07 Orioles 9 Mariners 5 (washburn allows 5 runs/BP allows 4)
5/24/06 Mariners 7 Orioles 4 (washburn allows 4 runs/BP allows 0)
THe Orioles were shutout on sunday for the 2nd time this season. THe first time the Orioles were shutout was on May 4 against the yankees and Sabathia (lost 4-0). In the very next game, the orioles scored 12 runs against the yankees and won 12-5.
Before sunday's game against the angels, the mariners had 5 in a row staying under the total. THis game is definite over based on past history when washburn pitches against the orioles. I have included only the past 6 starts of washburn against the Orioles and all those have gone over the total.
Rich Hill has a been relief pitcher/emergency starter in his career. Hill has one career start against the mariners but that was in 2007. Cubs won that game 5-3.
Prediction: BOth teams will score over 4 runs in this game.
