Here we go. Garland has been under machine for a few years now and especially so this year. At home his ERA is under 3.3 and in 7 home starts 6 have gone under. Baker is equally as good on the road with an ERA around 3.3 and in 4 road starts all have gone under the total. If you go back to the last 3 starts by each starter the numbers are even better. Both have an ERA under 2 and all 6 starts have gone under. I will stick with the trends for this one.
