    Good idea to take Angels tonight at -155???

    Rays have been on fire and they own the Angels. But it is Weaver we are talking about pitching, he was 1.23 ERA at home. Worth the chance to go with Angels and the ML????

    I wouldn't say they are on fire... Seattle just beat them and won the series. 2 games outta 3 and that cooled them off a little bit. Last night they beat the Angels but it wasn't a even matchup. Price vs. Haren? Lol.

    So tonight's gonna go a lot like last night except the shoes gonna be on the other foot. TB got completely shutdown by Felix, top 5 pitcher in league, then they got to face Haren which is a slumping hitters wet dream. TB rocked him. Angels saw TBs Ace, another top 5 pitcher, and got shutdown. Now they get to face Shields whos nowhere near as bad as Haren, but the guy can get lit up from time to time and after facing Price, it's what I expect the Angels to do.

    A pitcher like Weaver does not have two bad outtings in a row. Honestly, he didn't even pitch that bad during the loss. He made a few mistakes but I think you'll see lights out Weaver tonight. He'll be conservative and will pitch a minimum of 7 innings which can be a little nerve racking but he could also pitch the whole 9. I'm personally betting the whole game but first 5 is not a bad idea.

    Kind of like the Angles here myself despite the Rays dominance over them in the last 10 games. L.A. has been shut-out I believe 3 straight vs. Tampa and will look to rebound with their ace on the hill tonight. Keep in mind Shields was not one of the pitchers who shut them out in the last series a couple weeks ago and Weaver did not pitch in that series either. Fun fact... Derryl Cousins is behind the dish and home teams are 14-4 and the Rays are 0-4 when he is head ump.

    Rays are 8-2 over there last 10 games, I would say that they are in fire....with a win 7 streak in there. I guess I just talked myself out of taking anyone in this game....

    When somebody beats you in a series and throws a PERFECT GAME against you you've cooled off. Heading into the Seattle series they were on fire. Seattle who is a team that is.. what... 10 or 15 games below .500 beat them two out of 3 and in those losses they scored 2 Runs in 18 innings. So they got owned by a team that's not that great. I could hit one into the seats off Haren.. that game doesn't even count.Do what you like but you can get the Angels @ even money if you go -1.

    My money is on Angels first five innings. Then you don't even have to worry about the bullpen. Also you only have to watch 5 innings of baseball, which is a benefit into itself. When's the last time a bet has lost with Weaver for first five innings? Answer: it's been a long while.
