You can bet the Angels-Tigers series for Friday through Sunday with Game One featuring lines of LA +175, Detroit -200 and a total of 8.5.
Friday’s PITCHING MATCHUP: Angels RH Ricky Nolasco (4-11, 5.22 ERA) vs. Tigers RH Justin Verlander (13-7, 3.38)
Nolasco is winless in four outings since he was traded to Los Angeles. He struggled in his first two starts versus the Tigers this season but pitched six innings of one-run ball at Detroit on July 18.
Verlander has permitted two runs or fewer on nine occasions over a ten game span and has failed to pitch at least six innings only once.
He has allowed only 11 hits in 72 at bats versus the current Angels roster with one homer.
The UNDER is 12-3-2 in Verlander’s last 17 on grass.
Nolasco, on the other hand, has allowed 48 hits on 152 at bats.
Six of the last ten games in this series have gone UNDER the 8.5 total.
With Nolasco having struggled over his last four, we don’t see him giving up many runs in this game. In fact, this last three starts have resulted in UNDERs using the current total.
Go with the UNDER 8.5 here.
