00:00rubber match in the Bronx despite this only being a two-day series. They split
00:07the doubleheader yesterday between the Yankees and the Angels. New York
00:11victorious as greater than a $3 favorite with Luis. Don't call him. Heel on
00:16the bump in game one with Will Warren getting to start as a minus 250 favorite.
00:20They lost the second game of that doubleheader set. Hefty favorite once
00:25again today is New York at minus 240. Nestor Cortez on the bump total at eight
00:30and a half. What's the play in this Bronx battle? Yeah, rain is in the forecast
00:35again and as we told you that doubleheader was really against the
00:38Yankees yesterday. They end up splitting which you think they should have won
00:41both of those games and probably so based on the price points. But hear me
00:44out on Nestor Cortez. Left-handed pitcher getting absolutely crushed over his past
00:4930 days and particularly against right-handed batters. I mean off the
00:52charts 72 right-handed batters. He's facepalm over the past 30 days a 391
00:57ISO and a 479 weighted on base percentage. Here's the issue. You're
01:01gonna get a lot of right-handed batters in that lineup for the Angels. Yes, but
01:05there are a lot of bad right-handed batters. So the question for me is can we
01:08get a cheap price on a team total for the Los Angeles Angels because if they
01:12win this baseball game, I don't think they're winning three to two and quite
01:16frankly, they lose this baseball game. They might be able to lose what nine to
01:19four at this point with the picture they're putting out in Anderson. So from
01:23my money, it's actually the Angels and just a straight-up fate of Nestor
01:26Cortez. Not taking the money line, but you're saying what are they at three and
01:30I don't have it in front of me. It can't be any more than maybe a three and a
01:33half, three and a half number. I'll take the over on the Angels team total here. A
01:36bad baseball team, but they could be able to scrape out four runs against Nestor
01:40Cortez.
