LA Angels vs Oakland Athletics Prediction

It's hard to make a case for the LA Angels when they didn't announce a starting pitcher. JP Sears has been hittable this season and has had struggles at home with a 4.62 ERA. Regardless, neither the Angels nor Athletics are a good baseball team and if forced to get involved with either side, I'm going to grab the more favorable price. That's the Athletics in this spot. So, give me Oakland in game 1 against the Angels.
