Money line (ML)
The Angels (+160) have been on a play order for me for the last week or so. The Seraphs have gone 6-3 over their last nine games. Profits have rolled in on a better angle by skipping a couple of iffy starter situations, and that fits into this matchup Wednesday.
AVOID the Angels (+160) play, but consider a line-watch in a holdout for a +170 tag.
New to sports betting? A winning $10 bet on the Angels (+160) would return a profit of $16.
Run line/Against the spread (ATS)
The lean is on Los Angeles, but the +1.5 cushion does not jibe with the highest-leverage play of this contest, and that’s the Over. STEER CLEAR of the Angels +1.5 (-134).
Over/Under (O/U)
The starters have some significant risk of logging some higher-than-ERA numbers here. San Diego has a top-5 offense at home (.855 OPS), and Los Angeles has a top-5 offense going in September (.820).
Both clubs are at much their best against right-handed pitching. Back the OVER 8.5 (-110).
