Milwaukee Brewers vs Los Angeles Angels Prediction
You can make a case for the Angels with Soriano on the mound as he’s been a bright spot with a 3.29 ERA and 1.25 WHIP through 123 innings. However, I’ve said many times that I’m not in the business of backing the Angels and have been fading this team a lot over the years. While Gasser is hittable and has issues keeping the ball in the park, the Brewers are head and shoulders the better team. The Brewers likely find a way to win despite the questions on the bump. Give me the Brewers.
