The Los Angeles Angels are going to need more than Jo Adell robbing home runs if they want to upset the Atlanta Braves tonight.
Atlanta hands the ball to ace Chris Sale, which will be an issue for a Halos team that has been anything but heavenly when it comes to getting punched out.
My Braves vs. Angels predictions and MLB picks like Sale to lead road team to a win by multiple runs in this interleague matchup set for first pitch at 9:38 pm ET at Angels Stadium in Anaheim, on Monday, April 6.
Who will win Braves vs Angels today: Braves -1.5 (+100)
The Los Angeles Angels needed Jo Adell’s miracle glove to literally rob a 1-0 win from the Mariners on Saturday night.
Unfortunately, they’ll need their bats to step up in order to have any hope against Chris Sale and the Atlanta Braves.
Sale has looked great in his first two starts, allowing just one run on four hits while striking out nine over 12 innings.
He faces an Angels team that has the fourth-highest strikeout rate this season and had the highest in 2025 when facing left-handed pitching.
Sale will lead the Braves to a decisive win on Monday night.
COVERS INTEL: Current Angels hitters have combined for a career 32.4% strikeout rate when facing Sale.
Braves vs Angels Over/Under pick: Under 7.5 (-105)
Outside of a 17-run outburst on April 2 against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Braves' bats haven’t been as loud as you would expect and have plated four runs or fewer in four of their first seven games.
Tonight, they’ll face Angels’ ace, Jose Soriano. The right-hander has yet to allow a run on four hits over 12 innings pitched this season.
Meanwhile, the Angels rank 20th in OPS, 21st in wRC+, and it now sounds like they’ll be without Mike Trout for an extended period of time. That never helps an offense. Runs could be hard to come by tonight.
