Los Angeles vs Arizona Stats
Los Angeles Angels
The Los Angeles Angels are currently struggling in the AL West standings, sitting at the bottom of the division. After losing two out of three games against Houston, their rival is now sitting in third place, 5.5 games ahead of the Angels. Despite their position, catcher Logan O'Hoppe has been a standout player with the highest batting average on the team at .269, along with eight home runs and 28 RBIs. Left fielder Tyler Ward leads the team in home runs and RBIs with 11 and 34 respectively. Shortstop Zach Neto and outfielder Jo Adell also contribute to the team's offense, despite Adell's lower batting average. Pitcher Jose Suarez is making his first start of the season and may not pitch long due to his previous bullpen role. The team ranks 22nd in offense, 27th in defense, and has a record of 25-40 this season.
Arizona Diamondbacks Analysis
The Arizona Diamondbacks are currently in fourth place in the NL West, with the middle spots in the division tightly contested. Despite being just one game behind the Giants and a game and a half behind the Padres, the Dodgers still hold a commanding lead. In a recent series against the Padres, the Diamondbacks split the four games. Jake McCarthy's two-run home run in the last game helped secure a win, bringing his season total to three home runs and 15 RBIs. Ketel Marte leads the team in batting average at .281 and has hit 13 home runs with 35 RBIs. Christian Walker leads the team in RBIs with 41 and has hit 12 home runs while batting .256. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. has contributed nine home runs and 39 RBIs while batting .247. Pitcher Jordan Montgomery will make his tenth start of the season, with a 3-4 record and a high ERA of 6.80. Despite the team's power ranking of 22 and offensive prowess, the Diamondbacks have struggled defensively, giving up an average of 4.86 points per game. Their recent matchups against the Los Angeles Dodgers saw the Dodgers winning two out of three games.
Diamondbacks Expected to Prevail in High-Scoring Matchup Against Struggling Angels
In an upcoming MLB matchup, both teams are struggling with their pitching staffs as they each have chosen a starter with an ERA exceeding 6.50. The outcome of this game will heavily rely on the performance of their respective offenses, with the Diamondbacks expected to have the upper hand. The Angels will have Suarez, a reliever with a 6.54 ERA, starting for them, indicating an early bullpen takeover for Los Angeles, a team ranked 26th in team ERA. Despite Arizona's slightly lower team ERA ranking of 27th, they have demonstrated a more potent offensive capability, ranking 9th in run production compared to the Angels' 22nd ranking. With key players like Marte, Walker, and Gurriel in their lineup, the Diamondbacks have an advantage over a struggling Angels team that has yet to fully recover from a significant injury to Trout. The expectation is for a high-scoring game, with Arizona emerging as the victor. It is recommended to take the Diamondbacks to win and cover the runline.
