TORONTO (Towers) +150 over LA ANGELS (Washburn)
Josh Towers has sharpened his game and made 5 straight quality
starts against strong competition (vs. SEA, LAA, @CHW, NYY, @BAL),
with the Blue Jays winning 4 of those games. Over his last 40.1 IP,
Towers has shown impeccable control, walking only 3 batters, and
he has been good on the road all year (6-2, +$725, 3.60 ERA).
Washburn, on the other hand, is an unimpressive 3-6, -$515 at home
with a 4.75 ERA, even though his team is 11 games over .500 there.
Toronto has been a solid money maker versus southpaws
(10-6, +$765 on the road), scoring 5.5 runs per game. The Blue Jays
stole took one out from under the Angels last night, coming back to win
in the 9th inning and handing Francisco Rodriguez a blown save.
With yesterday being his third straight day of work, KRod will not be
available to close.
