Los Angeles Angels vs Boston Red Sox Predictions 4/14/2023

Boston discovered this week what Washington, Detroit, and Oakland already knew: Tampa Bay is for real. Despite Boston’s best efforts, the still-unbeaten Rays eventually swept them.

The Red Sox are seventh in terms of run production (7.46 runs per game), 22nd in terms of batting average (.235), and 16th in terms of OPS (.731).

They rank eighth this year in both long balls hit with 17 and base stealers with five. The pitching staff made zero quality starts and has a 5.42 ERA (26th) and 1.44 WHIP (22nd).

The 26-year-old Houck will make his Boston debut on Friday at Fenway. The 6-foot-5 right-hander’s prior starts versus Baltimore and Detroit both ended in victories.

In ten innings thrown this year, he gave up five runs on eight hits and three walks. Houck faced Los Angeles twice last season in relief outings, and they couldn’t be more dissimilar.

In his debut outing, he allowed seven runs on five hits in 2.1 innings, taking the loss, but he was much better a little over a month later, allowing only one hit in 2.0 innings, winning.

The total went OVER in 10 of Boston’s last 14 matches.
The Boston Red Sox are 1-4 SU in their last 5 matches.
The total went OVER in 5 of Boston’s last 7 matches at home.

Los Angeles Angels vs Boston Red Sox. The MLB pick for this game is the Los Angeles Angels.

After a difficult series against Tampa, Adam Duvall (.455 BA, 1.54 OPS), who suffered a fractured wrist in Monday’s defeat to the Rays, was lost to Boston.

The sad fact for the Sox is that their season may be lengthy and difficult, with more failures than wins. Meanwhile, the Angels are in first place in their division and will have to perform well or risk losing Shohei Ohtani to free agency.

This is the kind of game Los Angeles needs to win, with a legitimate starter on the mound and a below-average squad in the other bench.

Despite Sandoval’s little experience playing against Boston, this will be to his advantage.

Even though the Red Sox lineup can occasionally appear to be strong, they aren’t doing as well against left-handers, as they have just 35 hits and 39 strikeouts in 142 at-bats (27.4% strikeout rate).

The Los Angeles Angels will win to a predicted score of 6-5.
