Angels vs Yankees Prediction 

New York comes into this matchup after losing six of their last seven games and they have allowed 5+ runs in five straight. The Yankees are 4-4 at home this year, while the Angels are 6-6 on the road. Los Angeles has alternated wins and losses over their last five games and they have scored 7+ in four of their last five. LA is starting Kochanowicz, who has been very good in his last two starts, while Gil struggled in his first outing. I like how Kochanowicz is looking right now and I expect a better effort from Gil, so I like the under in this contest.
