BOOKMAKER'S MISTAKE (THIS LINE IS WAY OFF!)
(MLB) Baltimore vs. Philadelphia,
Money Line: -168.00 Philadelphia (Home)
Result: Loss
Money Line: -168.00 Philadelphia (Home)
Result: Loss
The set-up: Despite no fans being in the stands, I don't think that the home field advantage can be overlooked in this particular matchup. The Orioles hand the ball to Alex Cobb (1-0, 2.89 ERA) who gave up one run with three walks over five innings in an unfortunate loss to MIami last time out. Cobb's been decent, or his numbers appear to be early. That said, he's had difficulty going deep into games already and note that he was 0-2 with a 10.95 ERA last year.
The pick: Zack Wheeler (1-0, 1.29) gets the nod for the home side and allowed three runs with two K's over six innings in a win over the Yankees on Wednesday. Last year Wheeler was 11-8 with a 3.96 ERA and I think the veteran now settles down for his new team here and delivers a gem in friendly confines. Honestly, I feel this line could/should in fact be a lot larger; great value on the home side.
This is a 7* BOOKMAKER'S MISTAKE on the Philadelphia Phillies.
