Capper Penguin's MLB Bet of the Day- 8/29

Capper Penguin is targeting a pitching edge for Tuesday's bet of the day!

Michael Lorenzen is on the mound for the Phillies at home vs. Tyler Anderson and the Angels. Lorenzen has a clear pitching edge and history vs. the Angels sporting just a 3.63 ERA at home, but allowing 3 ER in the first 5 innings vs. them last game. This may seem bad, BUT Taylor Ward (3 RBIs), Trey Cabbage (3 RBIs vs. Lorenzen) and 2 other guys aren’t in the lineup that really hurt him.

And Tyler Anderson has done even worse vs. the Phillies. He allowed 6 runs in the first 5 innings in his last matchup against them. He’s also allowed 1 run per inning in his last 3 games, has a road ERA of 5.63 and the Phillies are hitting .264 at home, .281 in August and .258 vs LHP.

Give me the Phillies at home.
