Title: MLB Baseball Betting Action - White Sox vs. Mariners
What’s up with the Chicago White Sox? Can we please end the train wreck that is Ozzie Guilen? I mean, the guy can barely control himself. How is he every going to control a team? Sure, these guys won a World Series, but get this - - who do you think is the lowest scoring team in the American League right now? That’s right! The Chicago White Sox! Guillen’s antics only mean something if he’s brining home sports betting wins. With the way this team hits the ball, I doubt that will happen enough times this online betting season.
The White Sox send out pitcher Jose Contreras on Friday night. Contreras is an okay pitcher - - not nearly as dominating as he was then the ChiSox were fighting for a pennant every year - - but still good enough to handle the Mariners. From a baseball betting point-of-view, Contreras is one of those middle of the road pitchers. He isn’t money in the bank, but he probably won’t kill you either. He has a record of 2 and 3 and an ERA of 4.08.
The Mariners, who might be the most disappointing team in the majors this season, send out pitcher Carlos Silva. Silva has a record of 3 and 1 on the season. Of course, his ERA is 4.20. That means that Silva, like Contreras is okay on the mound, but he isn’t an online wagering star.
Here are some trends that might help us find a money-making BetUS online sportsbook bet in this game.
The Chicago White Sox are 1 and 7 in their last 8 overall games.
The Chicago White Sox are 0 and 6 in their last 6 games on the road.
The Under is 8 and 0 in the Chicago White Sox last 8 games on the road.
The Seattle Mariners are 2 and 6 in their last 8 games at home.
The Seattle Mariners are 1 and 7 in their last 8 overall games.
Man, this is a tough one. Both the ChiSox and the Mariners aren’t playing very well. That tells me that the only thing to look at is the BetUS overunder.
Is it possible to make an online wager regarding the BetUS over/under that could yield nice profits? Maybe. The fact of the matter is that the Chicago White Sox just don’t score a lot of runs. Yes, Carlos Silva has an ERA of 4.20 but he is pitching at home and, because of his record, it is obvious that the Mariners give him run support when he takes the mound.
That means that Silva pitches a good game, the Mariners score just enough runs and this thing goes under.
The BetUS online sportsbook wager in the Chicago White Sox versus Seattle Mariners game on Friday night is a BetUS over/under of 9 runs.
I’m going under.
