Dodgers vs Angels prediction

Dodgers vs Angels best bet: Freddie Freeman Over 1.5 total bases (+110)

The Los Angeles Angels trot out Jose Soriano to the mound, and he’ll be looking for a quick rebound after getting knocked around for seven earned runs against Tampa Bay in his last outing. It was a continuation of his struggles at home, where he has a 5.56 ERA and 1.56 WHIP.

Finding his footing may not be so easy against a Los Angeles Dodgers lineup in a groove, averaging 6.6 runs across their last five games. 

Freddie Freeman has been a big part of that success, hitting four home runs and averaging 2.8 total bases in his last 10 games. He’s hit safely in eight of those games, so he’s had both a high floor and a high ceiling. 

The veteran first baseman crushes right-handed pitching (149 wRC+). Soriano is known for the go-to sinker he throws 51% of the time, but Freeman has a higher career wRC+ against sinkers (179) than any other pitch type. 

Freeman’s total bases prop is set at 1.5, with slight plus money being offered on the Over even though he’s exceeded that number in seven of his last 10 games.

Caesars QuickPick: Our Dodgers vs Angels same-game parlay (SGP)

The Dodgers are trending to the Under (23 in their last 36 games) and stand a good chance of holding down the Angels’ lineup with Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the hill. 

The star hurler held Tampa Bay scoreless in his last outing to lower his ERA to 2.51, which is backed up by his stellar 2.70 xERA and .212 xBA. He faces an Angels team that ranks 27th in wRC+ (88) against right-handed pitching in the last 20 days, with the highest K rate (27.5%) in the league during that span.
