MLB Betting Trends
Seattle
The Mariners are 1-4 in their last five Friday games. Seattle is 4-17 in its last 21 road games.
Los Angeles
The Angels are 8-2 in the last 10 Heaney home starts. Los Angeles is 4-1 in the last five meetings.
Prediction:
The Angels torched Gonzales last week in Seattle and although it might not be as ugly tonight, it’s hard to see him having a really good outing. Heaney has been sharp since returning from injury and has a high strikeout rate. With the Mariners in freefall mode, I’m all in on LA tonight.
