Los Angeles Angels Recap

The Los Angeles Angels come into this one looking to bounce back from their series loss at the hands of the Astros over the weekend despite salvaging a 9-7 walkoff win in Sunday’s series finale. The series loss though, meant that the Angels would be unable to build on their series sweep of the Padres this time last week.

Taylor Ward leads the Angels with 59 hits along with 11 home runs and a team-high 34 RBIs. Mike Trout also has 10 home runs along with a pair of triples and 6 stolen bases, but remains out indefinitely with injury while Zach Neto has 14 doubles, 57 strikeouts and 8 stolen bases. Luis Rengifo also has a team-high 17 stolen bases while Jo Adell has 11 home runs, 27 RBIs and 9 stolen bases as well.

LA Angels vs Arizona Diamondbacks Prediction

I’m going to take a shot on the Angels here. The Diamondbacks have been playing the better baseball, but Jordan Montgomery is really struggling right now and I really don’t feel like bacing him in his current form, with an ERA over eight at home this season. Jose Suarez hasn’t been much better, but the Angels seem to be trying to put it together and they have played their better baseball on the road as it is this season. Give me the Angels in this one.
