The Angels offense has scored 479 runs with a .227 batting average and a .295 on base percentage. Shohei Ohtani is batting .262 with 27 home runs and 75 RBI’s for the Angels this season. The projected starter for Los Angeles is Shohei Ohtani, who is 10-8 with a 2.83 ERA and a 1.10 WHIP over 121 innings pitched this season.
The Toronto Blue Jays are 68-56 this season and have won seven of their last nine games. Prior to losing Game 1 of this series, Toronto won all three games in their series against the Red Sox. The Toronto pitching staff has a 3.90 ERA, a 1.24 WHIP, and a .248 opponent batting average.

The projected starter for Toronto is Alek Manoah, who is 12-6 with a 2.66 ERA and a 1.04 WHIP over 148.2 innings pitched this season.
Los Angeles is 26-56 in their last 82 games and 3-7 in their last 10 Saturday games. The over is 4-1-1 in Los Angeles’ last 5 games against the AL East. Toronto is 7-2 in their last 9 games and 0-5 in their last 5 games against the AL West. The under is 9-3 in Toronto’s last 12 home games. Los Angeles is 22-8 in these two teams last 30 head to head meetings in Toronto.
Los Angeles showed a rare offensive explosion on Friday night and dominated the Blue Jays. Toronto will look to bounce back with Alek Manoah, who has allowed eight earned runs over his last 16.2 innings pitched. For the Angels, Shohei Ohtani is coming off of a rough start to the Tigers, where he wasn’t feeling well. I like the under in this game and expect a pitching duel.
