T.M. Selection: A's (10* TRADE-MARK).
The A's are off a 2-1 win at Houston last night and with what I believe to be the superior starter on the hill for them in the opener of this new series, I look for them to post another victory on the road here. Cole Irvin (6-7, 3.56 ERA) gave up four runs over seven innings while striking out five in a no-decision to the Red Sox in his last outing. Cole will be feeling confident here as he's been at his best on the road, going 4-2 with a 2.57 ERA away from friendly confines. Jordan Lyles (4-5, 4.98) looks poised for regression for sure after back-to-back victories (note that despite a 2-1 record at home, he still has a poor 5.14 ERA there.) Give me Irvin and the focussed visiting side in a rout!
T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Oakland.
