Result: Win
This is an 8* BIG TIGER on the Oakland A's.
Sometimes a favorite is a favorite for a reason and in this case, we absolutely feel that Jharel Cotton and the home side could/should easily be much largers ones in this particular matchup:
Bartolo Colon: He's 2-9 with an 8.00 ERA. Colon most recently gave up three runs off eight hits and no walks while striking out two over five innings in a no-decision against the Dodgers on Monday. Colon has struggled in every facet of the game this year and has been particularly horrible on the road by going 1-5 with a 7.77 ERA.
Cotton: He's 5-8 with a 5.17 ERA. Cotton returns from the DL after sitting out most of July. In his final re-hab start Cotton looked sharp by going six scoreless and posting nine K's. Cotton has been hit-or-miss this season but has been at his best in all "day" games by going 4-2 with a 3.16 ERA.
The bottom line: Minnesota is just 17-26 (-7.6 units) this year in all "day" games, while Oakland is 4-1 (+3.2 units) in its last five day contests. The fact that Colon is part of the Twins starting rotation tells you something about the team right now. Lay the price with confidence as the A'S cruise to victory.
