AAA's SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION (+$17K ALL MLB Y-T-D!)
(MLB) Toronto vs. LA Angels,
Money Line: -164.00 Toronto (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the Toronto Blue Jays.

Setting the scene: Enough is enough! Toronto needs to start stringing some wins together and can no longer let any games "slip by" vs. sub-.500 teams. After losing two of three at home to the lowly Rays, we're expecting the hard-hitting visitors to find a way to get the job done tonight by sending their "ace" to the hill.

JA Happ: He's 18-4 with a 3.33 ERA. Coming off a dud against the Rays, Happ got back on track in his last start giving up two earned runs off four hits and a walk over six innings in a 3-2 win over the Red Sox on Saturday. He also struck out five. The southpaw now has two quality starts out of his last three to the mound and posted wins in 12 of his last 13 decisions. Note that he's 7-2 with a 3.59 ERA on the road this year.

Daniel Wright: He's 0-2 with a 7.50 ERA. Wright was designated for assigment by Cincinnati earlier in the month, which speaks to the Angels' desperation in trying to cobble together their starting rotation. He went 0-2 with a 7.62 ERA in four starts for the Reds.

The bottom line: Happ has little success against the Angels in the past, but past success or failure does not necessarily mean a similar result in the future. Happ and the hungry BLUE JAYS are the correct call in this matchup, lay the price with confidence.
