MLB Betting Predictions for the Complete Oakland @ Los Angeles Series

The Oakland Athletics are in Los Angeles this week for a four-game series with the Angels. These two AL West rivals have split the first two games of this series, and there are two more interesting games remaining.

Even with the win on Monday to begin the series, the Athletics have racked up just five wins this season. The Athletics are the worst team in baseball, and they could be on a historically bad trajectory.

The Angels have been wildly inconsistent all season long, and they enter Wednesday with a record of 12-12. Los Angeles is currently in the playoff mix in the AL West Division, but at some point, this team has to string wins together.

The Angels are big moneyline favorites at -235 on Wednesday night, and they will be favored in the series finale as well.

MLB Betting Predictions for Complete Oakland @ Los Angeles Series

MLB Oakland @ Los Angeles Series: Wednesday, April 26 – Thursday, April 27

 

Pitching a Problem For Oakland

The Oakland Athletics have plenty of holes on the roster, but it appears that they are weakest at the pitching position. Oakland comes into this game with a team ERA that is more than 7.80, and they just haven’t been able to get enough outs throughout the year.

Oakland is also a team with several young players on the roster, and those young players just haven’t been able to figure some things out. The Athletics might be able to do some scoring on Wednesday, but that likely won’t happen in the series finale.

Brent Rooker is having a big season for the Athletics as he leads the team with six home runs and 14 RBIs. The Athletics are hitting just .227 as a team this year, but they have shown some pop over the last week.

 

Angels Lineup Has Depth

The Los Angeles Angels have two of the best players in the world in Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout, and both of those players are hitting the ball well to begin the year. Trout has a .326 batting average to lead the team, and Ohtani has done a great job in all areas.

Hunter Renfroe has stepped up for the Angels, as he has six home runs and 18 RBIs in the early part of the season. The Angels should be able to outscore the Athletics, but they can also get some outs.

Patrick Sandoval starts for Los Angeles on Wednesday night, and then it will be Ohtani on Thursday. The Angels have a team ERA of 4.06, but the starting rotation has been much better than that.

 

Angels Should Control Series

The Los Angeles Angels will have Ohtani starting on Thursday, and so the game for the Athletics to win is on Wednesday. Oakland has swung the bats well in this series so far, but that’s going to change in the final two.

The Angels are a team that is loaded with talent throughout the lineup, and it should be a good offensive finish to the series. Los Angeles can’t afford to give any more games away to the Athletics, and they will be focused on this one.

The Angels are going to win the final two games to take the series from the Athletics in this AL West rivalry matchup.
