Angels at Mariners: Free Baseball Picks at YouWager

LOS ANGELES ANGELS (32-36) at SEATTLE MARINERS (34-33)

First Pitch: Tuesday, 10:10 p.m. EDT

Line: Los Angeles -135, Seattle +125, Total: 6.5

The Los Angeles Angels and the Seattle Mariners continue their three-game series at Safeco Field this evening after Dan Haren finally received some run support and defeated Seattle 6-3 on Monday.

The Angels will start with Jered Weaver (7-4, 2.24 ERA). Weaver?s last start against the Rays saw him allow just three runs in 7.2 IP, but the team was supportive with no runs while he was in the game. Los Angeles tied the game after he left, but eventually lost in extra-innings. Weaver has posted a 3.29 ERA and held batters to a .219 BA, but is just 1-4 in his past eight starts, as the Angels have supported him with just 10 total runs over that span.

The lack of scoring has been more noticeable by YouWager fans away from home. Weaver is 0-3 with a 3.33 ERA in four away starts while getting just three total runs of support and none in the past two games, including a 3-0 loss at Seattle on May 18. He allowed three runs in six innings of that matchup and hasn?t won outside Los Angeles since tossing a six-hitter in a 4-1 win at Texas on April 20. Weaver?s loss to Seattle this season snapped a span which he dominated the Mariners. Prior to his start this season against the Mariners, Weaver was 4-0 with a 1.05 ERA and 0.80 ERA in his previous six starts.

Seattle will counter with Doug Fister (3-7, 3.40 ERA). Fister has a 4.20 ERA in losing his past two starts, but the offense backed him with just one total run. He gave up four runs and seven hits in eight innings of a 4-1 loss to Detroit on Thursday, equaling his longest outing of the season. He is 1-1 with a 3.54 ERA in four career starts against the Angels, but lost his only road matchup July 15. He was tagged for six runs and 12 hits while lasting 5.2 innings.

Ichiro kept his hot streak going since ending his streak of 255 consecutive games played on Friday when he was given a day off by manager Eric Wedge. After hitting just .149 over his previous 21 games, Ichiro has recorded three straight multi-hit games for just the second time this season, going 6-for-13 over that span.

The Mariners offense is having a difficult time again after scoring 24 runs over a four-game span from June 2-5. Since then, Seattle has scored just 24 total runs and hit .220 as a team in losing five of eight. Jered Weaver is hardly the recipe for a struggling offense, so oddsmakers like Los Angeles to win again tonight:

Play On - All teams with a money line of -100 to -150 (LA ANGELS) ? AL team with a low on-base percentage (<=.320) against a team with a good bullpen (WHIP <=1.350), with an on-base percentage of .300 or worse over their last 10 games. (92-38 over the last 5 seasons.) (70.8%, +46.3 units. Rating = 3*).
