Angels vs. Mariners Offense Outlook

Over his last nine games, Jo Adell has really struggled at the plate, going just 2/30. However, he is still tied for the team lead with 11 homers. Mike Trout is also near the top of the Angels’ home run leaderboard, but like Adell, he has a low batting average so far this season. Taylor Ward has been a bright spot for the Angels, as he is hitting .264 with a team-leading 34 RBIs.

As a team, the Angels are 5th in home runs and are averaging 4.2 runs per game. This is just 20th in the league and is right around their season average. The Angels are also hoping that Kevin Pillar can keep his six-game hitting streak going, as he has gone 8/23 in his last six games.

Julio Rodriguez has been swinging the bat well of late, going 7/19 in his last five games. For the season, he is batting .273 with four homers and 23 RBIs. Ty France has been a key power bat for the Mariners, as his seven homers is 2nd on the team and 14th in the league. He is also 2nd on the team with 24 RBIs and is batting .256.

As a team, the Mariners are one of the worst offensive teams in the league, averaging just 3.8 runs per game. They are also near the bottom of the league in batting average, on-base percentage, and slugging percentage. Seattle’s lineup has been prone to striking out, as they are averaging 10 strikeouts per game.

Free Angels vs. Mariners MLB Pick

The way to play Sunday’s Mariners and Angels matchup is to take the under at 7.5 runs. Look for the Angels offense to really struggle vs. Luis Castillo, and other than their 9 run outburst last night, the Mariners offense has been struggling of late. I’m going with the under for for this one.
