Pick: Los Angeles Angels -129
The Los Angeles Angels are badly in need of a win tonight after back-to-back losses to fall 3.5 games behind the Texas Rangers in the AL West. We’ll back them at this generous price tonight. Jerome Williams was excellent in his season debut for the Angels on 8/21, allowing one earned run and six base runners in seven innings of a 7-1 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Anthony Vasquez wasn’t as fortunate in his debut for the Mariners on 8/23, yielding five earned runs and 11 base runners in 5 1/3 innings of a 12-7 win. There’s no question we are backing the better starter and the better team tonight. The Angels are 37-16 in their last 53 games as a favorite. The Mariners are 16-40 in their last 56 games as an underdog. Seattle is 1-5 in their last 6 home games. The Angels are 47-21 in the last 68 meetings with Seattle. Take the Angels on the Money Line. -Black Widow

In the series 4 of the 5 here have flown over the total. The Cardinals have played over in 8 of 10 off a day off this season and average 5 runs per game on the road. The Brewers average 5 runs per game here at home. The pitching also suggests an over. Jackson for the Cardinals has a 5.31 road era and Marcum has a 4.29 home era and an even worse 5.68 era vs the Cardinals. With St. Louis having gone over in 5 of their last 6 we will back the Over for the Free Play. See system below. On Tuesday 2 Top plays are going.

Pick: St. Louis Cardinals -165
Play on St. Louis at 8:15 ET. Even though they beat Milwaukee 2-0 yesterday, the Pirates are still struggling. They are 3-15 following a game where only two combined runs or less were scored. They’ve lost 19 of 26 games and going back to last year have some terrible road numbers. They are 28-67 in road night games and are just 36-96 as a road underdog of +150 or more. They are 5-10 L15 games at St. Louis and the Cardinals are going to be an angry bunch after getting swept by the Dodgers. Edwin Jackson has a 2.72 ERA at home this season. Pirates starter Charlie Morton has a 6-20 TSR as an underdog of +100 to +150. 10* on St. Louis. -Tom Freese (Handicapperspicks.com)
