MLB betting on Monday features an ESPN 2 matchup between division leaders as the Los Angeles Angels host the Detroit Tigers. It could be a great pitchers duel since Justin Verlander is going for Detroit while Jered Weaver gets the start for the Angels. Those that bet on MLB action might be looking at the under on Monday. MLB tells us that this is the first of a seven-game homestand for the Angels. Los Angeles has put a little distance between themselves and the Texas Rangers in the West and now they can increase that lead as they play at home.
The Tigers send Verlander to the mound on Monday. He is 13-7 this season with a 3.29 ERA as MLB betting statistics tell us. He has lost two of his last three outings although he has pitched well. He is 1-1 this season in MLB betting against the Angels.
Weaver is coming off his second career shutout as he dominated the Indians last Wednesday. Weaver got a no-decision against Detroit back in April as MLB stats indicate. He is 2-1 with a 7.08 ERA in four career outings against Detroit as bet on MLB stats tell us.
This has been a home team dominated MLB series. The Angels have won 8 of the last 10 in MLB betting at home against the Tigers. They took two of three back in April at home against Detroit as bet on MLB results indicated. Detroit has been a good team this season at home but they have struggled on the road in MLB betting. Their hitting just has not been good enough on the road and although their pitching is solid it is not Top 10 in the league as bet on MLB numbers indicate.
The games between the two teams in MLB tend to go under in Detroit but over at Los Angeles. Six of the last ten games between the two teams in L.A. have gone over the MLB betting total. Two of the three games in April at Los Angeles went over, way over. The teams scored 15 runs in one game and 22 in another. The other MLB game was a 4-3 win when Jered Weaver got the start.
