(921) Los Angeles Angels at (922) Pittsburgh Pirates
(3%) PITTSBURGH. The Pirates have been a streaky team. They started the season by going 4-0 in March. After 11 games, they'd built their record to 9-2. Then, came the losing streak. They've started to go the “right” direction again though; yesterday's victory was their third straight. I successfully played on them yesterday and I'm coming right back with them on Tuesday. Priester is a former first round pick and top #100 prospect. While his big league career hasn't gotten off to a great start, he's off back-to-back quality starts for the first time. Last time out, he allowed two runs through six complete innings. In his previous start, Priester allowed 0 runs through six complete innings. A similar effort against the struggling Angels should result in this season's first “W.” Sandoval has yet to deliver a quality start this season. He's 1-5 with an ugly 5.91 ERA and 1.69 WHIP. Pirates keep on rolling. *good up to -150
