Angels at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Yankees 4, Angels 3

Moneyline

PASS.

Unless you can get the Yankees at -160 or better in this matchup, then I’d refrain from wagering on the money line.

Run line/Against the spread

ANGELS +1.5 (-140) is the pick in this contest with both teams having talented pitchers on the mound. The Angels should be able to keep this game close with the Yankees boasting a league-worst .186 batting average against southpaws this season.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

With Sandoval and Cortes on the bump for Thursday’s showdown, UNDER 8.5 (-115) is an enticing bet. There haven’t been more than 7 runs scored in either of the 1st 2 games of this series.

The Under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings in New York and 6-1 in the last 7 meetings overall.

Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Los Angeles Angels (9-8) play the 2nd game of a 3-game series against the New York Yankees (10-7) on Wednesday at Yankee Stadium. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. ET (MLB Network). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Angels vs. Yankees odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Angels lead 1-0

The Angels defeated the Yankees 5-2 in the series opener Tuesday with OF Shohei Ohtani launching a 2-run HR in the 1st inning to give Los Angeles an early lead. Los Angeles has won 2 straight games following a 3-game losing skid from Friday-Sunday.

The Yankees haven’t received consistent play from their pitchers outside of RHP Gerrit Cole and LHP Nestor Cortes Jr., and RHP Clarke Schmidt struggled again on Tuesday with 4 ER on 6 H over 3 2/3 IP. New York has still won 6 of its last 10 games.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Angels at Yankees projected starters

RHP Griffin Canning vs. RHP Jhony Brito

Canning (0-0, 3.60 ERA) makes his 2nd start. He has a 1.00 WHIP, 0.0 BB/9 and 7.2 K/9 through 5 IP.

  • Allowed 2 ER on 5 H with 0 BB and 4 K in 5 IP vs. the Washington Nationals in his 1st start of the season last Wednesday
  • His last start was his 1st start since July 2 of the 2021 season as a back injury forced him to miss the 2022 season

Brito (2-1, 6.75 ERA) makes his 4th start. He has a 1.41 WHIP, 3.4 BB/9 and 6.8 K/9 through 10 2/3 IP.

  • Surrendered just 1 ER on 5 H with 3 BB and 8 K in 10 IP over his first 2 starts of the season
  • Allowed 7 ER on 6 H with 1 BB and 0 K in 2/3 IP vs. the Minnesota Twins Thursday

Angels at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Angels 6, Yankees 4

Moneyline

The ANGELS (+115) are the pick in this matchup with Brito struggling in his last start for the Yankees. Canning is tough to trust with him making his 2nd start since 2021, but New York’s lineup isn’t as lethal with OF Giancarlo Stanton sidelined.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

Considering that I have the Angels winning outright on Wednesday, I have them covering the +1.5 spread. That being said, wagering on Los Angeles +1.5 (-165) spread isn’t advised at the current odds.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 9 (-115).

It’s hard to have confidence in either of the pitchers taking the mound Wednesday. The Angels have scored 86 runs this season (tied for 10th in baseball) and the Yankees have tallied 76 runs thus far (21st).

The Los Angeles Angels (8-8) will begin a 3-game series against the New York Yankees (10-6) on Tuesday at Yankee Stadium. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. ET.

Season series: First meeting; Yankees went 4-2 vs. the Angels in 2022

The Yankees secured an impressive 2-0 win over the Minnesota Twins on Sunday with RHP Gerrit Cole tossing a complete game shutout. New York is currently on a 2-game winning streak.

Angels at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Yankees 7, Angels 4

Moneyline

With New York recording a 6-4 record at home this season, I’ll back the YANKEES (-140) on Tuesday. If you like the Yankees to win by multiple runs, then grab the better value on the run line.

Run line/Against the spread

YANKEES -1.5 (+140) has decent value despite New York struggling against LHP to begin the season. That being said, Suarez has sputtered in his 1st few starts with a .467 wOBA and a 39.5% hard-hit percentage.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

OVER 9 (-115) is the play with both of these pitchers struggling to begin the season. The Angels are also expected to have OF Mike Trout and 3B Anthony Rendon back in the lineup after they sat out on Monday.

Angels at Yankees projected starters

LHP Reid Detmers vs. RHP Jameson Taillon 

Detmers is 2-2 with a 4.65 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, 2.4 BB/9 and 6.0 K/9 in 40 2/3 IP over 8 starts.

  • Last start: Lost 7-2 at home May 25 vs. the Texas Rangers with 6 IP, 5 ER, 5 H, 2 HR, 1 BB and 3 K.
  • 2022 road splits: 0-0 with an 8.49 ERA (11 2/3 IP, 11 ER), 13 H, 2 HR, 5 BB and 11 K.

Angels at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Yankees 7, Angels 3

Money line

BET the YANKEES (-155) for 1 unit since they have a 3-phase edge over the Angels (+125) in starting and relief pitching and hitting.

Taillon is on track to make his 1st All-Star game this summer and his elite spin and pitch movement are big reasons why he grades in the 88th percentile of chase rate, per Statcast.

Also, N.Y.’s ML is at a reasonable price because Detmers threw a no-hitter earlier this season vs. the Tampa Rays and is a highly-touted prospect in L.A.’s organization. But, Detmers only struck out 2 batters in his no-no and he ranks in the 39th percentile or worse in several advanced pitching metrics.

Lastly, the Yankees have been steamed from a -131 favorite up to the current number by a flood of sharp money, according to Pregame.com.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS with a heavy “lean” to the Yankees -1.5 (+133) because they should cash this ticket but the payout isn’t steep enough.

The Angels +1.5 (-165) are just 3-4 RL as road underdogs but N.Y. is 0-2 overall and on the RL in the 2nd of a doubleheader.

Over/Under

LEAN to the OVER 8.5 (-108) only because we are getting to the party a little late on the total since Angels-Yankees opened at 7.5 but has been bet all the way up to the current number.

However, N.Y.’s lineup rakes lefties, L.A.’s lineup has hit Taillon very well in their 2 previous meetings, Yankee Stadium is a very hitter-friendly ballpark and the Over has cashed in 5 of the last 7 Angels-Yankees meetings.

Detmers is 2-2 with a 4.65 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, 2.4 BB/9 and 6.0 K/9 in 40 2/3 IP over 8 starts.

  • Last start: Lost 7-2 at home May 25 vs. the Texas Rangers with 6 IP, 5 ER, 5 H, 2 HR, 1 BB and 3 K.

Angels at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Yankees 6, Angels 2

Money line

BET the YANKEES (-180) because they have a 3-phase edge over the Angels (+145) and have been steamed from a -161 (per Pregame.com) opener up to the current number.

N.Y. priced less than -200 with Cortes on the bump is too good to pass up. Cortes has been one of the AL’s best starters and is a shoo-in for the All-Star Game whereas Detmers is making his 1st career start in Yankee Stadium.

According to Statcast, Cortes grades in the 93rd percentile or better in expected batting average (xBA), wOBA (xwOBA) and slugging percentage (xSLG) slash line and his cutter is tied for 21st in run value at minus-7 across 1,527 tracked pitches.

On the other hand, Detmers grades in the 47th percentile in xBA, 38th percentile in xwOBA, 25th percentile in xSLG and 17th percentile in whiff rate, per Statcast. Also, Detmers has gotten raked on the road this season (stats included above).

N.Y. is 11-5 overall against lefty starters while L.A. is just 8-7 and the Yankees rank higher than the Angels vs. left-handed pitching in wRC+ (114-110), wOBA (.324-.319) and hard-hit rate (31.8-30.0%).

Run line/Against the spread

LEAN YANKEES -1.5 (+115) because 5 of their 7 wins with Cortes as the starter have been by at least 2 runs and the Angels +1.5 (-140) are just 3-4 RL as road underdogs.

But, New York’s ML is expensive and there isn’t a lot of value in this RL so it’s just a LEAN to the YANKEES -1.5 (+115).

Over/Under

PASS.

Angels-Yankees opened with an 8.5-run total but the market has hammered the Under causing the drop in price.

However, L.A. is 4-0 O/U in the last 4 road games, N.Y. is 4-0 O/U in the last 4 home games vs. teams with a winning record and Angels-Yankees have gone Over the total in 5 of their last 7 meetings.

Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees odds and lines, with MLB expert picks and predictions.

The Los Angeles Angels (27-22) head to Yankee Stadium Tuesday to start a 3-game series with the New York Yankees (33-15) at 7:05 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Angels vs. Yankees odds with MLB picks and predictions.

L.A. is on a 5-game losing skid, which includes a 4-game sweep at home by the Toronto Blue Jays Thursday-Sunday. The Angels are just 3-7 straight up (SU) over their last 10 games.

N.Y. lost back-to-back games at the Tampa Bay Rays Saturday and Sunday to split their 4-game series but the Yankees are still 6-4 SU over their last 10.

The Angels beat the Yankees in last year’s season series 4-3 but N.Y. had a plus-2 run differential in those meetings.

Angels at Yankees projected starters

RHP Noah Syndergaard vs. LHP Jordan Montgomery 

Syndergaard is 4-2 with a 3.08 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, 1.9 BB/9 and 6.4 K/9 in 38 IP over 7 starts.

  • Last start: Win, 5-3, last Tuesday at home vs. the Texas Rangers with 8 IP, 1 ER, 4 H, 1 HR, 0 BB and 5 K.

Montgomery is 0-1 with a 3.30 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, 1.6 BB/9 and 7.2 K/9 in 46 1/3 IP across 9 starts.

  • Last start: No-decision in N.Y.’s 7-6 home win vs. the Baltimore Orioles last Tuesday with 6 IP, 2 ER, 4 H, 1 HR, 0 BB and 5 K.

Angels at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Yankees 4, Angels 3

Money line

LEAN YANKEES (-140) only because I prefer the Under, N.Y.’s lineup has been struggling lately and the presumed sharp side of the market is backing the Angels while the public is taking the Yankees, per Pregame.com.

But, Montgomery has better swing-and-miss and contact rates than Syndergaard and grades better in K% and BB% (according to Statcast). Also, N.Y.’s bullpen ranks in the top-5 in ERA, xFIP, home runs allowed per 9 innings and exit velocity (EV), all ahead of L.A.’s bullpen (per FanGraphs).

The Yankees are 30-14 straight up (SU) as favorites and 22-10 SU vs. right-handed starters while the Angels are 5-6 SU as underdogs and 8-6 SU against lefty starters.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

N.Y.’s lineup ranks 24th or worse in WAR, wRC+, wOBA and EV over the last two weeks so the Yankees -1.5 (+145) is a no-go.

Over/Under

BET the UNDER 8.5 (-102) since these teams have a combined 4-10 O/U record when these starters get the nod, N.Y.’s lineup has been ice-cold recently, L.A. is 0-4 O/U in the last 4 games following a day off and there’s suspicious reverse line movement headed south of the total.

Nearly two-thirds of the cash wagered is on the Over but the total has been lowered from a 9-run opener down to the current number according to pregame.com. This suggests oddsmakers are trying to entice more pro-Over action.

Let’s fade the market backing a “square” Over and BET UNDER 8.5 (+105).

Prediction

Yankees 6, Angels 3

Money line (ML)

The Yanks took two of three in a hard-fought series against the Chicago White Sox over the weekend and are 19-9 since the All-Star break.

The Halos are coming off a series loss to the Houston Astros; they are just 3-6 over their last 9 games. The L.A. offense has sputtered over that stretch logging a mere .600 OPS.

With New York’s recent trend lines and the Angels flying across the continental 48 for this one-gamer, the lean here is on the Yankees despite the big price and the Gerrit Cole layoff. But better pricing for the risk can be found on the run line. PASS.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

New York plays in a ton of close games. Bullpen injuries and issues play into that risk even when the Yankees build a 4- or 5-run lead by the middle innings. But that risk is rewarded with the YANKEES -1.5 (-120) tag.

After struggling at home earlier this season, New York has posted a .781 OPS over its last two home stands. And there is some systemic strength-of-schedule lean toward the AL East: the Yanks are 10-6 over 16 games against the weaker AL West.

When opening a road trip, the Angels are 1-4 with a minus-15 run differential over their last 5.

Over/Under (O/U)

With some fade of both starters and a nod to New York’s offensive capabilities, there is value in the OVER 8.5 (-115). Plus both clubs have some schedule-induced reasoning behind lose-the-battle-win-the-war-type bullpen management if things get sideways.

Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Thursday’s Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees odds and lines, with MLB picks and predictions.

The Los Angeles Angels (39-41) and New York Yankees (41-39) close out  a four-game series Thursday with a 1:05 p.m. ET first pitch at Yankee Stadium. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Angels vs. Yankees odds with MLB picks and predictions.

RHP Griffin Canning is the projected starting pitcher for the Angels. He is 5-4 with a 4.95 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, 9.3 K/9, and 3.9 BB/9 in 60 IP in 12 starts and one relief appearance.

Canning is a fly-ball pitcher – recording a below league average 35.1% ground ball rate – who has benefited from some recent favorable HR/FB numbers. He’s given up just 1 HR over this last three starts

LHP Jordan Montgomery is the projected starting pitcher for the Yankees. He is 3-2 with a 4.06 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, 8.8 K/9, and 2.5 BB/9 in 82 IP over 15 starts.

Montgomery is coming off a quality start against Boston, and faring well against good offensive clubs is part of an encouraging trend for the Yankee lefty. Montgomery owns a 3.35 ERA since May 21 despite pitching against the White Sox, Blue Jays (twice), Twins, and Red Sox, all of whom are ranked top-10 in OPS.

Prediction

Yankees 7, Angels 5

Money line (ML)

The Yanks and Halos are coming off a lengthy, rain-delayed, wild 19-run game on Wednesday night. L.A. won that game, 11-8, after scoring 7 runs in the top of the ninth inning.

There’s enough value to make a wager on the home side. BET NEW YORK (-160).

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

Los Angeles is 5-1 in its last six get-away road tilts, but Montgomery and Yankees’ bullpen depth add up to a bit more of a lean. The current tag on the Bronx Bombers is fair. TAKE NEW YORK -1.5 (+115).

Over/Under (O/U)

Another warm, humid, breeze-out game is expected Thursday afternoon. The starters in this one are decent but bullpen effectiveness, fatigue, and availability are issues both teams could be struggling with. PEG THE OVER 10 (-105) WITH A BIT OF VALUE.

Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Wednesday’s Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees odds and lines, with MLB picks and predictions.

The Los Angeles Angels (38-41) and New York Yankees (41-38) continue a four-game series Wednesday with a 7:05 p.m. ET first pitch at Yankee Stadium. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Angels vs. Yankees odds with MLB picks and predictions.

RHP Shohei Ohtani is the projected starting pitcher for the Angels. He is 3-1 with a 2.58 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, 12.4 K/9, and 4.7 BB/9 in 59 1/3 IP over 11 starts.

Ohtani is on an ultra-consistent roll and has improved his walk and strikeout indicators as the season has progressed. Against a good-hitting Giants club in his last start, the two-way sensation got 21 swings and misses in 6 innings. Over his last 4 starts, Ohtani has logged an impressive 15.4% swinging-strike rate.

RHP Domingo German is the projected starting pitcher for the Yankees. German is 4-5 with a 4.32 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, 8.1 K/9, and 2.0 BB/9 in 73 IP over 14 starts.

The Yankee righty has seen his production fall off since May. Dwindling control and ground-ball figures have accompanied a Boeing ERA (7.04) over his last five starts. German does own a decent line at Yankee Stadium since 2019 where he’s logged a 3.11 ERA and 1.04 WHIP in 98 1/3 IP.

  • Over/Under: 9.5 (O: -115 | U: -105)

Prediction

Yankees 6, Angels 5

Money line (ML)

The Yanks and Halos split the first two games of the series, with Los Angeles winning Monday and New York answering Tuesday.

Los Angeles is 17-22 with a minus-55 run differential in road games. Ohtani is certainly an equalizer but he’s pitching in front of a bottom-third bullpen and doesn’t often go past 6 innings. His normal length could be compromised a bit in this one after registering a season-high 107 pitches in his last outing (he averages 84 pitches per game). Furthermore, the best arms in the Angels ‘pen are further along on the fatigue-meter than their counterparts backing up German.

With all that noted, the prices here look to be dialed in. BACK THE YANKEES (-145), but on a slim lean at best.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

PASS. While the lean is on the home nine the tags here leave no wiggle room for profit.

Over/Under (O/U)

On what figures as a warm night with a hitter’s breeze, and with the Ohtani/Angels bullpen fade and Domingo German having a home run problem when he’s off TAKE THE OVER 9.5 (-115).

Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Tuesday’s Los Angeles Angels at New York Yankees odds and lines, with MLB picks and predictions.

The Los Angeles Angels (38-40) and New York Yankees (40-38) continue a four-game series Tuesday with a 7:05 p.m. ET first pitch at Yankee Stadium. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Angels vs. Yankees odds with MLB picks and predictions.

LHP Andrew Heaney is the projected starting pitcher for the Angels. Bundy is 4-5 with a 4.72 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, 11.1 K/9 and 2.6 BB/9 through 68 2/3 IP spanning 13 starts.

Heaney logged his third double-digit strikeout game of the season with 10 K against the San Francisco Giants in his last start June 22, but the Angels lefty coughed up 5 ER on 10 base hits. He owns a 5.56 ERA over two previous starts at Yankee Stadium in his career.

RHP Jameson Taillon is the projected starting pitcher for the Yankees. In 14 starts, he is 2-4 with a 5.18 ERA, 1.32 WHIP, 9.7 K/9 and 2.8 BB/9 over 64 1/3 IP.

Taillon owns a 3.08 ERA over his last 26 1/3 IP at home. A right-leaning Angels lineup plays into a strength: Taillon has held righty bats to a .680 OPS while logging a 6.5-to-1 K/BB ratio in his career.

  • Over/Under: 10 (O: -110 | U: -110)

Prediction

Yankees 5, Angels 4

Money line (ML)

The Yankees came into this series having lost three straight to the Boston Red Sox over the weekend. Their losing streak was extended to four games with a 5-3 setback in the opener of this four-game set against Los Angeles.

Look for a bounce-back Tuesday behind Taillon, who has recently pitched a bit better than what’s indicated by his surface numbers. The Halos have not been a good road club with a a minus-49 run differential. Los Angeles is 17-21 away from home.

Heaney has a shaky history coming off of higher-pitch-count starts; he tossed 107 pitches in his last.

BACK THE YANKEES (-155).

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

PASS. Figure enough respect for the pitching on both sides to make for a close game.

Over/Under (O/U)

The Angels’ offense often struggles on the road and New York’s .702 home OPS ranks as a bottom-third number. Throw in more respect for Heaney and Taillon than what shows in their earned run averages.

TAKE THE UNDER 10 (-110).
