Giants at Angels picks and predictions

Prediction

Giants 4, Angels 3

Moneyline

The Angels have not won since the trade deadline and are just 3-9 in Sandoval’s last 12 starts.

The Giants may have lost back-to-back games but are still a respectable 7-4 in their last 11.

BET GIANTS (-120).

Run line/Against the spread

The Angels are an MLB-best 11-2 on the run line this season as home underdogs. Los Angeles +1.5 (-165) should hit, but there’s no need to pay the higher price on the run line when San Francisco ML is the better play.

PASS. Bet the moneyline and/or the total instead.

Over/Under

The Under is 21-13 this season when the Giants play AL teams.

The Under has also gone 8-2 in San Francisco’s last 10 games and 7-2-1 in Los Angeles’ last 10.

BET UNDER 8.5 (-115).

San Francisco Giants at Los Angeles Angels odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Tuesday’s San Francisco Giants at Los Angeles Angels odds and lines, with MLB picks and predictions.

The San Francisco Giants (46-26) and Los Angeles Angels (36-36) play the opener of a two-game interleague set Tuesday with a 9:38 p.m. ET first pitch at Angel Stadium. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Giants vs. Angels odds with MLB picks and predictions.

RHP Anthony DeSclafani is the projected starting pitcher for the Giants. He is 7-2 with a 3.01 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, 7.9 K/9 and 2.4 BB/9 in 80 2/3 IP over 14 starts.

DeSclafani enters with three wins in three starts in the month of June posting a 1.35 ERA with just three earned runs allowed across 20 innings. He also has allowed just 11 hits with one walk and 17 strikeouts.

LHP Andrew Heaney is the projected starting pitcher for the Angels. He is 4-4 with a 4.45 ERA, 1.23 WHIP, 10.8 K/9 and 2.9 BB/9 in 62 2/3 IP over 12 starts.

Heaney saw his three-start win streak snapped last time out in Oakland, allowing three earned runs, five hits and one walk with six strikeouts across five innings Tuesday. One of the wins in his streak came in San Francisco June 1 allowing just one run and five hits across 6 1/3 innings.

  • Over/Under: 8.5 (O: -120 | U: +100)

Prediction

Giants 4, Angels 3

Money line (ML)

GIANTS (+110) are a nice value as short ‘dogs on the road against the Angels (-135) as DeSclafani has been red-hot in the month of June. Heaney topped San Francisco earlier in the month, and he has been keeping the ball in the yard lately, but backing DeSclafani is the better option here.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

The GIANTS +1.5 (-175) are not overpriced if you’d like a little bit of insurance and don’t trust them to win outright. In two of their past five losses they were able to keep it within one run. However, I expect them to win and prefer the money line here.

Over/Under (O/U)

The UNDER 8.5 (+100) at even money is a nice play here as DeSclafani and Heaney have been pitching very well lately.

It’s a little bit risky of a wager as San Francisco’s offense has been going bonkers lately averaging 9.0 runs per game across the past six. In addition, the Over was a perfect 9-for-9 for the Angels before an Under result in the series finale with the Tigers.

Still, I think DeSclafani and Heaney can keep the bats somewhat quiet here. Nothing comes easy, so be prepared to sweat a little.
