    What is with the Angels line?

    What am I missing here?

    Up to +120 at some places.

    The Angels are 49-17 in Weaver's last 66 starts as a favorite.
    The Angels are 52-25 in Weaver's last 77 starts.
    The Angels are 6-1 in Weaver's last 7 starts vs. Blue Jays.
    The Blue Jays are 5-2 in Hutchison's last 7 home starts
    The Blue Jays are 1-5 in their last 6 home games vs. a right-handed starter.

    Everything you mentioned doesn't really matter IMO because anything can happen on any given day.

    So why bother looking at any statistic or line ever?

    on a Sunday, the home team is usually favored IMO. but it's a 4 game series. the angels will lose today OR tomorrow

    with the JAYS losing on friday/saturday, the chasers are on them today

    Everyone is on Jays. Usually that's not a good sign

    I look at matchups, how well teams are playing, the line, and who I think is the better team.

    I don't factor in things that happened in previous years because I focus on the now. If was that easy and all signs point to LA why aren't they favored? Is Vegas stupid?

    Pound LA if you're sold.

    people are going with the Jays are due for a win theory. There angle is it isnt likely for a home team to get swept.

    it has nothing to do with matchups. Ofourse Jared Weaver is a brilliant pitcher. Hutchinson is a bawse too.

    This game is easy to pass on for me. I see no edge here for either squad.

    Did I say I was sold? No. Did I ask what I am missing? Yes? Are you a fukkin tool? yes.

    You look at stats, yet nothing matters because anything can happen. You focus on the now but you look at stats which happened in the past. Jesus man. My IQ was cut in half reading your potato logic posts.

    I like Toronto and you like LA.

    You act mad at me for liking the other side. I don't get it.

    Neither one of us can read the future so I guess we will see who wins.

    All I was saying is that all of your stats from previous years are irrelevant. If everything was in LA's favor they probably wouldn't be +120 with their ace on he mound.

    I never said I was on the Angels. Read slowly, maybe you will comprehend better. I said "what is with the line?".

    You referenced a bunch of previous stats. I pointed out that anything can happen today and stats from previous years are irrelevant.

    Now you're mad. Whatever.

    I think Toronto is the better team even though they have lost a few in a row.

    Expected better pitching from the Jays.

    No worries. Hopefully you had LA and are in a better mood now.

    Well I was wrong. Sometimes it is that easy. Just felt Toronto would get better pitching and be able to get into the Angels pen.
