First play of the day for me:
I think the losing streak continues.
Pitching
Pivetta has only given up 9 ER in his last 7 games (45 innings of work) = 1.80 ERA
The last 2 starts for Ohtani (3.99 ERA) weren't great. 4 ER in 3 innings vs NYY & 5 ER in 6 innings vs Blue Jays
Boston (career) bats are only 0.185 avg vs Ohtani.
Angels (career) bats are 0.275 avg vs Pivetta
Batting
BOS: 0.266 over last 7 days (9th in MLB)
LAA: 0.191 over last 7 days (29th in MLB)
Angels avg 4.5 runs/gm for the season but only 1.7 runs/gm in last 9 games.
Boston avg 3.5 runs/gm in the last 9 games.
Relief pitching
Boston's relievers have been doing much better than the Angel relievers. Last 3 games were BOS vs LAA.....
Boston relievers 2.41 ERA
LA Angels 6.20 ERA
I like the Red Sox and I'm getting + odds. Where do I sign up.
Boston ML +109
