Los Angeles Angels
These teams have inverse records entering the series, which starts on Friday night. For the Angels that is a major source of disappointment. Though perhaps their expectations are way off.
Being fifth in homers is a nice sign but overall this lineup makes way too little contact and is paying a lot for a slew of underperformers. They look good on the lineup sheet though.
Griffin Canning has not pitched terribly this season but he has not won a game either. He faced Oakland last week at home and it wasn’t pretty. He gave up four ER in four innings, thanks to 3 homers allowed. Maybe a change of scenery will help
Oakland Athletics
After back to back losses at Arizona, the A’s won back to back games against the Diamondbacks at home, carrying those wins into this series starting on Friday. They are still in first place in the AL West but Houston is pushing them, finally.
Matt Olson continues to be a steady source of power and is slowly inching his average up to respectability, he is at .170. Ditto for fellow corner infielder Matt Chapman, who is at .248. Marcus Semien was an MVP candidate last season but he is nowhere near that productive this year. This team can be better than it has been.
Through five turns through the rotation Chris Bassitt has been the best starter for Oakland. He beat the Angels last week and pitched well enough, though not deep enough to do so the first week of the season too. Those are good indicators for Oakland as well.
Free Los Angeles Angels vs. Oakland Athletics MLB Prediction:
The A’s are 4-1 in Bassitt starts this season, the last one being a loss. It is great that he has essentially beaten LA twice this season, as are his sterling splits at home.
