Rickenbach MLB Rotation #967 Friday 10* Top Play OVER the total in Minnesota Twins vs Los Angeles Angels @ 8:10 ET - As long time followers know, I like to play overs in particular when I feel the home team pitcher will get hit hard. That is because the home team lineup usually hits the ball better when at home than on the road generally speaking so I am confident they will get their runs and the concern usually has more to do with the away team. As road teams struggle sometimes to hit as well, the confidence level rises when that road team lineup is facing a sub-par pitcher. That said, this one fits the bill perfectly because JA Happ is likely to struggle. The southpaw has a 6.15 ERA on the season and a 7.36 ERA in his last 3 starts. The O/U is 12-5 in his starts this year. The Angels have an O/U record of 21-9 this season in games against left-handed starters and have averaged 5.6 runs per game in those outings. Alex Cobb gets the start for the Angels and, though he has pitched better of late, he has a 6.37 ERA on the road this season and the O/U is 10-4 in his starts this year. He has allowed 14 earned runs in less than 12 innings in his last 3 starts against the Twins and the O/U is 6-1 in Cobb's 7 career starts against Minnesota. This total is double digits for a reason and I expect at least a dozen runs in this one. 10* OVER the total in Minnesota
