Oakland Athletics vs Los Angeles Angels Predictions 8/1/2021

The Angels were devastated by injuries this year, and dropped to 51-52, 12.5 games back in the AL West, after losing three of their previous four matches. Los Angeles was one of the stronger teams in the MLB this year, batting .256 and producing 4.76 runs per game, ranking 9th in the scoring offense despite Mike Trout’s absence.

Reid Detmers, a left-handed pitcher, will make his first appearance for the Angels. The 22-year-old pitched well in the minors and was a first-round draft pick in 2020. His command was praised by scouts, and despite throwing a 90-94 mph fastball, he has the potential to be a valuable future element for the Angels.

The total went UNDER in 9 of LA Angels’ last 12 matches.
The total went UNDER in 5 of LA Angels’ last 5 matches against Oakland.
The total went UNDER in 4 of LA Angels’ last 5 matches at home against Oakland.

Oakland Athletics vs Los Angeles Angels. The MLB pick for this game is the Oakland Athletics. Although Detmers has the potential to be a valuable contributor, this will be his first MLB appearance at the age of 22, and it will be a major step for him. The Athletics need to keep up with the Astros in the AL West, and the Angels are failing to produce enough offense due to injuries to Trout and maybe Ohtani, who is labeled as day-to-day. Kaprielian is capable of working his way through an ailing lineup and produces a respectable performance that leads to a victory. The Oakland Athletics will win to a predicted score of 5-4.
