Angels Betting Preview
Los Angeles moved to 22-21 after falling to Baltimore. The Angels have dropped five of their last seven games, and they’ll look to get back into the win column this Wednesday. The LAA offense is scoring 4.16 runs per game, while batting .252, with a .331 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 4.33 ERA, with a 1.27 WHIP. Mike Trout had multiple hits in the game one win over Baltimore, and he leads the Halos in runs (29), while batting .281. Shohei Ohtani leads LAA in hits (47), BA (.303), and RBI (29). Hunter Renfroe doubled twice in game one, and he’s right behind Ohtani for the team lead in RBI (28).
Griffin Canning (2-1, 6.38 ERA, 21 Ks) will get the call for Los Angeles. The fourth-year pitcher struggled with Houston last time out, allowing five runs in just 3.2 innings to earn his first loss of the season. Canning has yet to deliver a quality start this season, and he may struggle with the O’s here.
Orioles Betting Preview
Baltimore moved to 27-15 after defeating Los Angeles. The Orioles avoided another three-game skid by taking down the Angels yesterday, and they’ll now look to push for their third straight series victory. The Baltimore offense is scoring 4.95 runs per game, while batting .249, with a .329 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 4.19 ERA, with a 1.32 WHIP. Cedric Mullins has produced a run in both matchups with the Angels, and he leads the O’s in RBI (32). Adley Rutschman had a hit in six of the last seven games, and he’s up to a team-lead .285 batting average. Ryan Mountcastle homered in the game two win over the Halos, and he now leads the team in HR (9), with 29 RBI.
Kyle Bradish (0-1, 9.82 ERA, 8 Ks) will start the game for Baltimore. The second-year pitcher put together one of his finer starts of the season last week, striking out six in six shutout innings of work against Pittsburgh. It marked Bradish’s second quality start of the season, and he’ll attempt to build on that home performance here.
Anaheim vs Baltimore Trends
LAA Angels are 21-22 against the spread this season, with a 20-19-4 O/U record. Baltimore is 24-14 ATS this year, with a 21-18-3 over/under record.
Corey’s Free Pick
Baltimore bounced back in game two, and I like their chances of doubling down on Wednesday. The Angels are set to start a vulnerable Griffin Canning, and that should fare well for a deep Orioles lineup. The O’s have also been one of the best home teams in the league this season, and they should be able to tack on another victory at Camden Yards here. Back Baltimore for game three.
