BETTING TRENDS

Miami are 4-11 SU in their last 15 games.

Miami are 2-8 SU in their last 10 games on the road.

LA Angels are 3-13 SU in their last 16 games at home.

LA Angels are 6-14 SU in their last 20 games.

Prediction

The Angels have struggled offensively so far scoring only 2.5 runs per game but they'lle facing Elieser Hernandez a pitcher who has been sidelined due to injuries in his career but also Lorenzen hasn't been a starter oftenly. The Angels have the better team and they should play better against this time after coming from a tough series.
