THE PLAY: OAK ML
On paper the A’s have a nice three phase advantage in this one against a struggling Mariner offense with a very shaky LeBlanc on the bump. I don’t have absolute confidence in Mengden, but he’s looked good thus far. This play is more about a hot Athletic lineup that’s top five in team wOBA (.365) over the last seven games, against Monsieur LeBlanc who will be making a trip to AAA if he continues at this pace. Considering the bullpen edge and Seattle’s road struggles, there’s a good case to weigh 25% of this wager on the -1.5 RL (at your own discretion for risk tolerance).
IT’S VERY GOOD TO BE BACK!
Let’s get it.
