Los Angeles Angels vs Athletics Prediction<\/p>\n
I\u2019m not excited about this game or this pitching matchup, which is why I\u2019m siding with the over. Morales doesn\u2019t have a large enough sample size to trust, with just 4.2 innings under his belt for his career. Anderson has a 4.63 ERA and 1.40 WHIP on the season, and he\u2019s allowed 16 hits and 10 runs in his last 14.2 innings. In 58.2 road innings, Anderson has a 5.52 ERA and .278 allowed batting average. Expect some fireworks. Give me the over.<\/p>\n
