Result: Win
This is an 8* play on the LA Angels.
Parker Bridwell got crushed by Oakland just last week, but for the most part the rookie has dominated this year. The same can't be said for A's veteran Chris Smith, who up until this year has been a lifer in the minor leagues.
Bridwell: He's 7-2 with a 3.52 ERA. Bridwell was shelled for seven runs over three innings to the A's on Wednesday, fortunate to receive a no-decision for his sub-par effort. Starts like that though have truly been few and far between for the rookie though, who is already 3-0 with a 2.61 ERA in all "day" games this season.
Smith: He's 0-4 with a 6.27 ERA. The 36-year old was 0-3 with an 8.49 ERA in August spanning five outings. He's been better at home than on the road this yera, although that's not saying much with a 5.01 ERA.
The bottom line: Note that LA is 14-11 (+2.4 units) in its last 25 against clubs with losing records, while Oakland is just 7-11 (-1.8 units) in its last 18 against teams with losing records. We like Bridwell to bounce back. Play on the ANGELS.
