Stephen Nover's MLB Tuesday Top Ticket
(MLB) Toronto vs. Oakland,
Money Line: -119.00 Oakland (Home)
Result: Win
Money Line: -119.00 Oakland (Home)
Result: Win
I like the A's at home. I especially like the pitching matchup for them here and the price is right to back them.
Oakland is one of the toughest places to play for opposing teams. The A's have won 10 of their last 12 home games.
I had some doubts about Cole Irvin being in a big-league rotation. But Irvin has reached a trust level for me going 2-1 with a 1.56 ERA during his last three starts. His strikeout-to-walk ratio is 20-to-2 during this span.
Anthony Kay is slated to make his second start of the season for Toronto. Kay's first start didn't go well. He gave up four earned runs on six hits in 3 1/3 innings in a 7-5 loss to the Royals on April 15. The Blue Jays have been reluctant to start him since.
