One Louisiana Bettor Risking a Massive Amount of Money on the Over in Yankees-Angels Game Monday

Put Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout in one series and you’re bound to have some fireworks, right?

Well, one bettor is banking on it.

On Monday, Caesars Sportsbook revealed that one sports bettor in Louisiana is putting a whopping $315,000 on the over at eight runs during the Angels-Yankees matchup tonight.

The bet would pay out $286,363.64 on a potential win.

The Yankees will be sending out deadline acquisition, Frankie Montas, to start. While the Angels will turn to left-hander Jose Suarez to try to get an elusive win amidst yet another disappointing season.

Since joining the Yankees, Montas has struggled mightily. In four starts with the Yanks, Montas is 0-1 with an atronomical 7.32 ERA.

After allowing six runs against the Blue Jays in his first start at Yankee Stadium, Montas admitted that the pressure of becoming a member of the Yankees might be affecting his performance little bit.

“A lot of emotions coming to Yankee Stadium,” he said in a clubhouse interview via NY Post. “Of course, I want to go out there and do my best. This is not my best.”

However, Frankie Montas may have turned a corner in his last start against the first place Mets, when he went 5.2 strong innings, allowing just two runs on the performance.

For the Louisiana bettor who has over $300,000 riding on the over, he has to be hoping that Frankie Montas shows more struggles in a Yankees uniform when facing off against the Angels on Monday night.
