The Los Angeles Angels are the coldest team in baseball, coming into this game off 14 straight losses. The Boston Red Sox are winners of seven in a row and I expect them to complete the sweep of this four-game series tonight.

Angels right-hander Shohei Ohtani (3-4, 3.99 ERA) gave up five runs in six innings against Toronto in his last start. The Angels have lost each of his last three starts.

Boston right-hander Nick Pivetta (5-4, 3.50 ERA) is 5-0 in his last five starts. He allowed more than one run in only one of those five outings.

In their current state, I'm not sure if the Angels should be favored against anyone, and certainly not the Red Sox.
