I'm also taking the under on the O's/Rays game. The O's have struggled against young pitchers in the past. I'm thinking this will be a 4-3 type game.

What young pitchers have they struggled against? How many games are we talkin?

I don't have the stats, but I watch many O's games and many times when some guy comes up from the minors and starts or just some guy they've never seen before starts, they struggle. Especially lefties. You can check some O's fan boards and they will all tell you the same thing.

Look at the last two games against Oakland this season. That was no coincidence.

This makes no sense, you need an N larger than 2 to rule out coincidence. Some of what you say might have some relevance, ie. they struggle against lefties or they struggle against pitchers whom they see for the first time(regardless of how old), although without you having statistics to back it up, I am hesitant to agree with you on the second point.


I would strongly advise against using fan boards as a source of information which you use to place bets.
