Today's Games (Friday 8/27)
Oakland (+120) @ Texas (-140)
In the only game today Brett Anderson is matched up against Tommy Hunter. Anderson has been on the DL most of the year with elbow issues, but he seems to be okay. If he is healthy he has a chance to become one of the best lefties in the game. He has a good fastball and curve ball and he is accurate. He can rack up the strikeouts and is also a ground ball pitcher. That's a pretty good formula for success. Hunter is an average major league pitcher at best and I really don't know how he has a 3.68 ERA. He doesn't miss many bats so that tells me his stuff is below average. He is good at throwing strikes, but it looks like he is benefiting from a low hit rate. I still think there's a chance Oakland can make a push on Texas, and it all starts here. I like the A's as the underdog with one of the more underrated young pitchers on the mound.
Bet
$20 OAK +120
