TUESDAY: $242 BET ON THE MINNESOTA TWINS -110 OVER THE BALTIMORE ORIOLES

I continue to fade Lang using the Labby Line.

After winning my last bet on yesterday, my Labby Line today is  X - 11 - 11 - X.  I am betting to win 11 + 11 or 22 dimes or $220. My bet is $242  on the Minnesota Twins -110 to win $220 or 22 dimes.

If I win that bet, then I will start a new Labby Line on Wednesday which would be 11 - 11 - 11 - 11.

If I lose today's bet my Labby Line for tomorrow will be: X - 11 - 11 - X - .24.2

Mr. Lang's Analysis:

He is finally ready to step up and pitch well tonight.

Last year he made 28 starts going 11-11 with an ERA of 4.61 and was looking forward to a big year this year.

However the injury bug got him last August with a strain in his throwing shoulder and he still felt soreness in spring training which led to the DL on opening day.

He was put in service in early June and over the last month has been dealing in the minors where he has flat out found it.

After throwing 7 scoreless innings over his last start Wednesday, he gets called up to start tonight with this injury plagued starting staff of the O's.

Already down for the count is Jason Hammel (Knee surgery) out for a month, Brian Matusz and Jake Arrieta both recently sent down for poor outings.

As Britton said, "I feel more confident going into this year because I know I have prepared right."

The O's are trying to rebound after last night's 19-7 beat down and they get to feast on Samuel Deduno.

In his first big league start he gave up 3 runs including 2 homers in a 4-3 loss in 10 innings to the Rangers.

All things considered, I like the fact Britton has won his last 2 starts versus the Twins with an ERA of just over 3.

I will gladly jump on the O's to bounce back against a team that before Monday night they had beaten 7 in a row outscoring them 39-9.

Ride the small road chalk to a big win tonight.
