Angels at Dodgers picks and predictions
Prediction
Dodgers 6, Angels 2
Money line
PASS on the money line. The Dodgers are one of the best teams in baseball and have one of their better pitchers on the mound. They are 18-10 at home and going against an Angels team that is playing worse than anyone in the majors. They are 2-17 in their last 19 games.
It doesn’t make sense to bet the Angels right now with how they are playing and the price isn’t worth the action to bet the Dodgers. PASS.

Run line/Against the spread
The Angels have been keeping many of their losses close. Ten of their 17 losses in this 19-game stretch have been by only 1 run.
But when the Dodgers win, it is almost always by multiple runs as 34 of their 38 wins have been by at least 2 runs. All 7 of their wins when Anderson starts are by 2 or more runs.
Take the DODGERS -1.5 (+102).
Over/Under
Eleven of the Angels’ last 19 games have had 9 or more runs.
The Dodgers have had 5 of their last 7 games stay at 8 or fewer runs, and 5 of Anderson’s 9 starts have also had 8 or fewer runs.
Take UNDER 8.5 (-125).
