Let\u2019s make some picks for the series.<\/strong><\/p>\n Tonight, 10:05 p.m. ET<\/strong><\/p>\n Justin Verlander (13-7, 3.29) vs Jered Weaver (13-4, 3.89)<\/p>\n Justin Verlander and Jered Weaver are two of the American League\u2019s best pitchers and, more importantly, two of the league\u2019s best home pitchers. That gives Weaver the edge tonight, as he\u2019s 8-1 at Angel Stadium while Verlander sports a pedestrian 4.27 ERA on the road. Weaver hit the skids around the midway point of the season but is starting to find himself, having tossed three quality starts in his last four outings. Go with the Angels in your sports picks<\/a> tonight. Best betting management pick: Angels<\/p>\n Tuesday, August 25, 10:05 p.m. ET<\/strong><\/p>\n Jarrod Washburn (8-7, 3.18) vs John Lackey (8-6, 4.00)<\/p>\n Unlike most NFL betting preseason action, Tuesday\u2019s ballgame seems like another easy decision. John Lackey has cruised 2.68 ERA since the All-Star break. Meanwhile, Jarrod Washburn has not enjoyed life as a Tiger, serving up eight homers in 25.1 innings. He also has been rocked for a 7.71 ERA in three starts against the Angels this season. Vladimir Guerrero is his maker; he hits .375 with three homers and nine RBI in 32 career at-bats against Washburn. You have to go with the Angels here.<\/p>\n Best betting management pick: Angels<\/p>\n Wednesday, August 26, 3:35 p.m. ET<\/strong><\/p>\n Edwin Jackson (10-5, 2.86) vs Joe Saunders (9-7, 5.33)<\/p>\n Time for some Detroit revenge. Luckily for Tigers fans, Joe Saunders (a) is returning from a DL stint, (b) has an 8.51 ERA since the All-Star break, (c) has allowed 24 long balls this season and (d) has a 7.36 ERA against the Tigers. You\u2019ll want to go with the Tigers and Edwin Jackson, who is one of the AL\u2019s best road pitchers.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
