Marlins at Angels picks and predictions

Prediction

Angels 3, Marlins 2

Moneyline

The Angels should be able to avoid getting swept vs. the inconsistent Marlins. Los Angeles is 16-6 in its last 22 home games vs. right-handed starters and should be able to have success vs. a young pitcher in Pérez. The Marlins have not won 3 straight games as underdogs this season and are 2-6 in their last 8 vs. left-handed starters.

BET ANGELS (-135).

Run line/Against the spread

The Marlins last 2 losses have both been by just 1 run. Miami +1.5 (-175) should hit, but there is no need to pay the higher price on the run line when Angels moneyline is the better play. Bet Los Angeles moneyline and/or the total instead.

PASS.

Over/Under

The Under is 5-2 in Miami’s last 7 games after scoring 5 or more runs and 5-2 in its last 7 vs. left-handed starters.

The Under has hit in 5 of Los Angeles’ last 7 games and should cash again Sunday as Miami’s offense comes back down to Earth after scoring 4 runs in the 10th inning Saturday.

BET UNDER 8.5 (+100).

Marlins at Angels picks and predictions

Prediction

Angels 4, Marlins 3

Moneyline

BET ANGELS (-145).

The Angels have won 4 straight and are 13-4 in their last 17 at home vs. teams with a losing record. The Marlins are just 1-6 in their last 7 vs. left-handed starters and are coming off a demoralizing loss at the Rockies last time out. The Angels dominated the Marlins last season and should do so once again in this series opener.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

The Marlins have been losing games, but their last 2 losses were both by just 1 run. Miami +1.5 (-165) should hit, but there is no need to pay the higher price on the run line when Angels moneyline is the better play. Bet Los Angeles moneyline and/or the total instead.

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

Over/Under

BET UNDER 8 (-105).

The Under is 4-1 in Miami’s last 5 games after scoring 5 or more runs last time out and is 4-1 in its last 5 vs. left-handed starters.

The Under has hit in 4 of Los Angeles’ last 5 games and should hit again Friday as the Marlins’ offense comes back down to Earth after exploding for 4 runs in the 9th inning at Colorado Thursday.

Miami Marlins at Los Angeles Angels odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Miami Marlins at Los Angeles Angels odds and lines, with MLB expert picks and predictions.

The Los Angeles Angels (1-3) host the Miami Marlins (1-2) Monday for the opener of their two-game interleague miniseries. First pitch from Angel Stadium is scheduled for 9:38 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Marlins vs. Angels odds with MLB picks and predictions.

The Angels dropped their first series to the AL West rival Houston Astros by a combined score of 20-10. L.A.’s only win was SP Noah Syndergaard‘s debut for the Angels. Syndergaard got the win with 5 1/3 IP, 2 H, 2 BB and 1 K.

Miami lost the rubber match with the defending NL West champion San Francisco Giants 3-2 Sunday to drop its first series. The Marlins were outscored by the Giants 10-9 and all three meetings were 1-run games.

Marlins at Angels: Projected starters

Miami RHP Elieser Hernandez vs. L.A. RHP Michael Lorenzen

Hernandez was 1-3 in 2021 with a 4.18 ERA (51 2/3 IP, 24 ER), 1.32 WHIP, 2.4 BB/9 and 9.2 K/9 across 11 starts last season.

  • Hernandez has never pitched against the Angels

Lorenzen was 1-2 last season with a 5.59 ERA in 2021 (29 IP, 18 ER), 1.38 WHIP, 4.3 BB/9 and 6.5 K/9 in 27 relief appearances for the Cincinnati Reds.

Marlins at Angels prediction and picks

Prediction

Angels 7, Marlins 4

Money line

BET the ANGELS (-140) because Hernandez is a bottom of the rotation starter and L.A.’s bullpen is sneaky good. Hernandez’s meatball rate was 1.4% higher than the MLB average and his barrel rate is 2.3% higher, per Statcast.

Angels 3B Anthony Rendon also mashed against Hernandez while playing in the NL East for the Washington Nationals. He has 2 home runs and a double in 10 PA versus Hernandez.

Rendon performing to his contract is major for L.A.’s lineup this season and his dominance over Hernandez means Angels’ 3-hole hitter 1B Jared Walsh should get some meatballs.

The ANGELS (-140) is my favorite wager in this game.

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

I don’t like L.A. enough to sprinkle on the Angels -1.5 (+140) because their lineup has been more sizzle than steak since the beginning of last season and hasn’t lived up to its potential.

Furthermore, Miami has one of the better bullpens in baseball so I wouldn’t rule out the Marlins relievers keeping this one close if Hernandez doesn’t get nuked.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 9.5 (-102) because both starters are question marks, the weather forecast is predicting nearly 12 mph blowing out to right-centerfield and the presumed sharp side of the market is on the Over.

More than 70% of the cash is on the Over while nearly 60% of the bets placed are on the Under according to pregame.com. Typically, in sports betting, it’s wise to follow the money especially when it’s counter to the public.
