Pick of the Day August 22: LA Angels (62-62) at Minnesota (71-52)

Pick: Minnesota -120
why?
The Twins have been on fire since the All Star break winning all but 6 of their past 26 games. One thing that they have been consistent all year in is hitting right handed pitching. In the past 10 games they are batting .299 against right handed pitchers. The right handed pitcher they are facing today is Jared Weaver. The Twins scored 3 runs on 6 innings against him the last time they played. But you may ask whats the difference now? The difference in today's game is that today Jared Weaver is on the road. The Twins are a different team at home and you can see that through their 39-22 home record.

Jared Weaver is a stud, we all know that. But if you take a deeper look into his stats you can see that he is two different people at home and on the road. His home era is 1.65 HOWEVER his road era is 4.50. That is a huge difference and we will see that difference tonight. The Angles in a whole are a bad team on the road as they have a 29-35 home record. Also the Angles bullpen used it's dominant relievers last night in their win and with nothing to play for they will not risk playing them on back to back nights. The pitchers you can expect to see are Trevor Bell, Scott Jepsen and Scott Shields; that is great news for the Twins.

This week my record is 5-2; not what I would wish for however still extremely reliable. The value on this game is very good and you can expect the line to stay the same so it wouldn't be too bad of an idea to bet close to game time on this game. At -120 for a Twins team at home this is a must bet. Good Luck to all and thanks for the support!

Record: [5-2]
