Rating: 8*

The Los Angeles Angels will host the Cincinnati Reds Monday night, and I think we will see the score in this contest fly over the set total.

Matt Shoemaker (8-13, 3.98) takes the ball for the Halos as he's set to make his first career appearance against the Reds. Shoemaker is coming off six scoreless innings, but I don't see him tossing back-to-back gems. We can also note that the Angels' bullpen might not be able to provide much backup after logging more than 10 innings over the last three days.

Dan Straily (10-6, 3.57 ERA) is coming off a gem of his own as he scattered three hits over six scoreless innings to beat Texas on Tuesday. He's however 1-3 with a 6.69 ERA in seven career starts against the Angels and now he'll come up against a LAA team that has scored a total of 24 runs in winning for of its last five games. Cincy's bullpen has logged more than 11 innings over the last three games and it has the worst ERA in baseball this season.

Both teams have swung their bats well lately despite nothing to play for at this stage of the season, and this should be a high-scoring and entertaining game.
