Seattle Mariners vs Los Angeles Angels Predictions 8/4/2023

 

At the trade deadline, the Angels risked everything to make the postseason and persuade star Shohei Ohtani that Anaheim is where he belongs.

 

To bolster the team for the remaining two months of the season, the Angels acquired first baseman C.J. Cron and outfielder Randal Grichuk from the Rockies, starter Lucas Giolito, and reliever Reynaldo Lopez from the White Sox.

 

The Angels defeated the Braves in game one, 4-1, but lost the next two games after being outscored 17-6.

 

Reid Detmers, a lefty, will receive the ball from the Angels in game two on Friday night. In 19 starts this season, including five excellent ones, Detmers is only 2-8.

 

In his 101.1 innings of pitching, he only allowed 92 hits. His WHIP is 1.29, and his K/9 rate is 11.3. Detmers entered this game with a record of 0-2 and an ERA of 8.36 across his previous three outings.

 

Detmers made one start against the Mariners this year, pitching 4.2 innings while giving up four hits and three runs, just two of which were earned. He did not walk a batter while striking out seven in the no-decision.

 

On 143 inherited base runners, Los Angeles relief pitchers had an inherited scoring percentage of 41.3%. They used their bullpen relievers 86 times with runners on base and 107 times in high-leverage situations.

 

The Angels now have 121 save opportunities, 121 holds, and 17 missed saves. They sent 317 relievers to the mound so far this season, and they are presently placed 12th in baseball with a save percentage of 66.0%.

 

Los Angeles saw relievers enter the game in 50 chances to preserve the game, and they came away with 33 saves. The Los Angeles Angels turned 84 double plays and have the 23rd-best fielding percentage in the majors (.984).

 

This season, the Angels amassed 2,868 putouts, 887 assists, 62 errors, and 62 errors. The Angels’ 68.8% defensive efficiency over 8,604 innings on the field ranks them 18th in MLB.

 

  • The total remained UNDER in 5 of the LA Angels’ last 7 games.
  • The Los Angeles Angels are 2-5 SU in their last 7 matches.
  • The total hung OVER in 11 of the Angels’ last 16 matches with Seattle.

Seattle Mariners vs Los Angeles Angels. The MLB picked the Seattle Mariners to win in this match. Castillo, a pitcher for Seattle, had three excellent starts with an ERA under two and a half and a K/9 rate above 10.

 

Even better, he has a 2.31 ERA and a K/9 rate that increases to more than 12 against the Angels. With an ERA over eight and two defeats in his last three outings, Detmers, an Angels starter, struggled.

 

Detmers has a record of just 2-8 for the year and was consistently an unlucky loser. Despite adding Cron and Grichuk to their lineup, the Angels only scored 10 runs in their series against the Braves.

 

Anticipate Castillo to hold the Angels at bay and Seattle to edge Detmers and the LA Angels to secure a win. The Mariners will win 7-3.
