Baltimore Orioles @ Los Angeles Angels

Williams and Matusz; two pitchers emerging from the wilderness, or at least Triple-A Salt Lake and Norfolk respectively.

Williams has been wandering rather longer and further than Matusz and arrives with a 7-2 record in 11 games (3.91 ERA) in Salt Lake.

Matusz went 1-4 with an 8.77 ERA in six starts in June, and was sent down. He was recalled on Tuesday, and promptly gave up six runs in an 8-4 loss in Oakland.

The O's are at least doing OK at the plate (.306 v righties L10) and the Angels are hitting .400 against Matusz with an eye-watering 1.032 OPS.

Kerwin Danley has a 14/10 record behind home plate (8/1/1 L10).

Anaheim is not usually a place to go Over, but with these two toeing the rubber, it looks the bet.

Pick: Over 9 @ 1.91
