Jesse Schule Free Pick
(MLB) LA Angels vs. San Francisco, 05/03/2015 12:05 PM, Score: 0 - 5
Total: 7.50 | -115.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is a Free #MLB play on LAA@SF to go OVER the total.

A few years back, you would say that a game featuring Tim Lincecum and Jered Weaver would be destined to be a pitcher's duel. That's not the case here this season though, as both these starters appear to be be well past their prime.

Weaver (0-3, 5.83 ERA) was torched for six runs on six hits over six innings in a loss at Oakland his last time out. The word is that his fastball is topping off in the low 80s, and the result so far has been that he's getting hit pretty hard. He surrendered a pair of home runs in the loss to the A's, and he's now been taken deep six times in five starts.

Lincecum (1-2, 3.27 ERA) allowed four runs on eight hits over four innings in a loss to the Dodgers his last time out. He's been struggling to stay in the rotation in San Francisco the last few years, and a lack of control is one of his biggest problems.

The Angels have seen the total go over in 10 of Weaver's last 11 starts as an underdog on the road.

Take OVER.

GL,
