The Angels bats have been on fire putting 42 runs on the board in their six games. They’ll face wily veteran Wade Miley who has had an excellent start to the season going 3-1 in four starts with a sub 2.00 ERA. That said he hasn’t faced the Angels team since 2016, but he does have a decent sample size of metrics against the Angels’ current roster and it isn’t impressive. The LAA batters have a combined 55 at-bats against him with 17 hits including five doubles and two HRs.
The Angels are going with Tyler Anderson who was blown up in his last three for 17 runs (16 earned) and has only one decent start on the season and that came in his opener. Anderson does have really good numbers against this lineup holding them to a batting average of .171 in 35 at-bats. Additionally, the Brewers have been awful against left-handed pitching this season, hitting just .205 and scoring 2.83 R/9 compared to 5.40 versus right-handed pitching.
So, this is one of those games if you base your betting decision solely on the current form of the starters, you’re taking the Brewers. If you use the historical starters data versus today’s opponent and the teams’ current form, you take the Angels. The latter is where I’m going. Take the LA Angels +115.
