Key Stats
Los Angeles Angels
The Los Angeles Angels have been a subpar team this season. Over their past ten games, they have a record of 4-6 and sit fourth in the American League West. However, they are winners of their last two games and defeated the New York Mets in their last series. Davis Daniels has been named the probable pitcher for the Angels in this game. This will be his first time facing the Yankees batters. With a record of 1-2 on the season and only 22.0 innings in four starts, LA will need a masterclass from Daniels in this game.
To the offensive side of the dish for the Angels, they will be missing their star left fielder Taylor Ward. Ward leads the Angels in HRs (16) and RBIs (55). After the news that they will be without three-time MVP Mike Trout for the remainder of the year, this is a team that has had trouble scoring. In their last series, New York won two games to one and had a run differential of 13-8.
New York Yankees
The New York Yankees have been one of the best teams in baseball over their last ten games. With a record of 7-3, including seven of their last eight, they look to widen the gap in the AL East race over the Baltimore Orioles. Luis Gil will get the start on the mound tomorrow afternoon and in his limited experience against the Los Angeles Angels’ batters, he has been dominant! Gil has held their batters to a .077 batting average (2-for-26) with nine strikeouts and only one home run.
The offense of the Yankees starts with none other than Aaron Judge. The reigning AL MVP, leads the team in BA (.322), HRs (41), RBIs (103), OBP (.456), and hits (127). Since trading for Jazz Chisolm Jr., New York’s offense has been on fire, scoring four or more runs in all seven games. For the season, the Yankees have a top-three offense in multiple categories runs (first), OPS (second), total bases (third), and home runs (second).
Prediction
This is not a hard prediction. The New York Yankees are going to pulverize the Los Angeles Angels. This is a bad matchup for the Angels. To put it in simple terms, LA will not be able to keep up with the big dogs. Gil shouldn’t have much of an issue on the mound and this is to difficult of a spot for the Angels to throw in Daniels against one of the best offenses in the entire MLB.
Final Pick
New York Yankees -1.5 (-132)
