MLB Betting Trends
Toronto
The Blue Jays are just 2-9 in their last 11 against AL West opponents and 2-10 in their last 12 road games. However, they have won four straight Sunday games.
Los Angeles
The Angels have won eight of their last 10 home games against a right-handed starter. They are also 6-1 in their last seven home games against a losing team.
Prediction:
The Angels have a very questionable pitcher on the mound today. Pena has limited action and it hasn’t been terribly productive. He hasn’t pitched over four innings in any of his three appearances. Gaviglio has been a little hot and cold, but he is the more trustworthy of the starters and I like Toronto as the underdog in this matchup.
The Pick: Toronto Blue Jays +125
