AMEDEUS' MLB DIAMOND DINGER!
(MLB) LA Angels vs. Tampa Bay,
Total: 8.00 | -115.00 Over
Result: Win
The Angels are coming into this game playing in some high scoring games recently. They have seen 8 runs or more in their last 4 straight as well as 6 of their last 7 games. They are going up against a Rays team that has also been in some high scoring games recently as they have seen 8 runs or more in their last 4 straight as well as 5 of their last 6 games. Aaron Civale is starting for the Rays here and he is 7-3 with a 3.06 ERA this season. He has been consistently allowing runs in his starts since coming to the Rays as he has allowed at least 3 earned runs in each of his last 3 straight as well as 4 of his last 5 starts. The Angels do not have a bad offense either so Civale is going to be good for some runs here with the way he has been pitching in recent games. Reid Detmers is starting for the Angels here and he is 3-10 with a 4.77 ERA this season. He has been very inconsistent this season with some good starts and a few recent starts where he allowed 7 earned runs or more. He has also consistently allowed at least 2 runs in each of his last 4 starts and he is going to struggle more against one of the best offenses in the MLB here. The Rays have also been much better at home this season with a stronger offense and they will score runs in this game as they are chasing down the Orioles for the lead of the AL East. The Angels cannot really play playoff spoiler as the Rays have already guaranteed themselves a Wild Card spot but they can definitely hurt their chances of winning the division here so they will still have some motivation to win this game and score some runs with the way Civale has been pitching. Between these two sides, there will be enough runs in this game to push it over the total.
