Texas Rangers vs Los Angeles Angels Prediction
I’m looking at the over in this spot. Gore strikes out a lot of guys but gets hit when he’s not missing bats. On the season, Gore has a 4.55 ERA and 1.24 WHIP, and he has a 5.79 ERA and a .248 allowed batting average on the road. Detmers has a 4.12 ERA on the season and has allowed 16 earned runs in his last 29.1 innings. The Angels have lost 6 straight games Detmers has pitched. Two below-average arms at the moment. I expect offense from both sides. Give me the over on Monday night.
