Yanks Looking Like Red-Hot Bet MLB Pick as Nova Battles Floyd, Parlay Pick Says Back Halos
April 27, 2011
BetOnline online baseball gamblers that like to bet MLB baseball are on for a treat thanks to my Tuesday night 2-for-1 special.
In the lead game of my MLB parlay picks, the New York Yankees will look to get back in the win column behind young Ivan Nova when they square off against veteran lefty, Gavin Floyd and the ChiSox.
On the back end of this 2-for-1 special, the Los Angeles Angels will look to hand the pitching-rich Oakland A’s a convincing loss when the AL West division rivals battle on the Left Coast.
With the first pitch for both matchups getting thrown in a mere matter of hours, let me get started.
Chicago White Sox at New York Yankees 7:05 PM ET
Yankee Stadium
TV: FSN-MW, FSN-HOU
MLB Odds
Chicago White Sox +1½ -160 +120
Gavin Floyd –L
New York Yankees -1½ +140 -140
Ivan Nova –R
Over 10 -110
Under 10 -110
Analysis: The Chicago White Sox snapped their three-game losing streak by beating the Yankees 2-0 on Monday night to cover the Bet MLB odds as a +184 road underdog.
The Yankees had their three-game winning streak snapped in the loss but look like a good pick to get back in the win column tonight despite the fact that young right-hander Ivan Nova (1-1, 7.37 ERA) has mostly struggled this season.
Gavin Floyd (2-1, 4.00 ERA) looked solid in allowing just two earned runs in six innings in his last start, but he’s also allowed at least four runs on two other occasions.
The White Sox have gone 2-7 against the Bet MLB Odds in their last nine road games against the Yankees and are just 2-5 in Gavin Floyd’s last seven starts overall.
Prediction: While the young Nova has looked lost at times this season, I’m still going to advise BetOnline MLB gamblers to back the Yankees in this contest, mostly because of their prolific offense.
New York is 4-1 in Nova’s L/5 starts as a home favorite and 7-2 in the right-hander’s L/9 starts overall.
Play the Yankees to get the SU Moneyline win while the final score plays Over the Bet MLB Over/Under Total.
MLB Pick: Yankees SU Moneyline Win/Over 10 Total Runs
MLB Parlay Pick
Oakland at Los Angeles 10:05 PM ET
TV: CSN-CA, FSN-W, MLB-Net
The Los Angeles Angels put an old-school whipping on the A’s on Monday night as Jered Weaver tossed a complete-game gem to move to a perfect 6-0 on the young season and cash in against the Bet MLB Odds as a -146 pick against the baseball sportsbook moneyline.
Tonight, I’m expecting another win for the Halos, but not nearly in the convincing margin they pulled off Monday’s win by.
MLB Odds
Oakland Athletics -1½ +140 -120
Brandon McCarthy –R
Los Angeles Angels +1½ -160 +100
Tyler Chatwood –R
Over 7½ -110
Under 7½ -110
Analysis: The Athletics will give the ball to right-hander Brandon McCarthy (1-1, 2.10 ERA) while the Angels counter with right-hander Tyler Chatwood (1-1, 3.50 ERA).
Both young hurlers have been nearly equally solid this season, which is why I’m like the Angels to win this matchup. Los Angeles is at home in this matchup. Tyler Chatwood has not allowed more than four earned runs in his three starts this season while holding the opposition to two earned runs or less in two of those starts.
The Oakland A’s always seem to produce a boatload of fine young pitchers, but they just don’t have the hitting to compliment them. Too bad A’s … and good news for the Angels and Bet MLB gamblers that like to back the Halos.
Prediction: L.A. Angels SU Moneyline Win
