1* Angels +183: Just can't pass up the Angels at this price. Ervin Santana is young and often inconsistent, but when he is on, he can be dominant. LAA have been embarrassed in this series so far, being outscored 18-1 through the first 2 games, but I think this game will be close throughout, and the Angels have the advantage in the bullpen.
1* Astros +145: Freddy Garcia is making his first of the season for the Phils after looking terrible in spring training. Garcia throws a lot of breaking stuff, so if he isn't sharp, he will get hammered pitching at Citizens Bank Park, where every fly ball has a chance to leave the yard. I think it is a bad fit for him pitching in this park, and the Astros bats are starting to heat up.
1* Rangers -105: I think the Rangers have a significant pitching advantage here with Brandon McCarthy over Horacio Ramirez. Ramirez had a nice rookie season in Atlanta a few years ago working with then Braves pitching coach Leo Mazzone, but I believe his success was mostly because of Mazzone's abilities as a coach. He is nothing more than a 4th or 5th starter, and I think he will struggle in Seattle.
