Expert Betting Tips
When Houston Astros starting pitcher Cristian Javier takes the mound, the Astros definitely have a slight advantage; however, in order for me to back him on the road, I need a better return on my investment. The offensive performance of the Los Angeles Angels has improved as of late, and the fact that they prevailed in an extra-inning game only last night may have had an impact.
