The winds are blowing up to 25 to 30 mph here right now, and it'll still be blowing out towards right-right center field pretty significantly by game time. With this in mind and Blanton's less than stellar ERA thus far coupled with the Angels bats (that seem to be warming up a bit now) I like the over 8 1/2. I think the Twins get some runs off of him (Blanton) and the A's always seem to hit the Twins pitching, regardless of who's on the mound. Hamilton had a field day here last year and Trout was no slouch either. The only "fly in the ointment" is that Corriea hasn't pitched too bad so far for the Twins, but I still think that this contest goes over the total. Good luck in whatever you decide to do with this info.
