MGM. He’s under in 15/24 starts and each of his L5. I wasn’t burned by BAL vs an OAK lefty yesterday, but today is a better lineup, and just as good of a matchup. Plus, OAK definitely got more innings than they bargained for with Waldichuk yesterday (fuckers), I’ll take the Orioles to knock Sears around.
