The Colorado Rockies come into this game struggling, with a five-game losing streak and only three wins in their last 10 games.

They are 13 games under .500 and are sitting in fourth place in the AL West. The Angels are favored to win this matchup at -137 with a total of 8.5 runs. Kyle Freeland (ERA: 6.23) will start for the Rockies, while Davis Daniel (ERA: 5.82) will start for the Angels. Los Angeles opened as a -140 favorite but is currently at -137.

Colorado Rockies

In the latest game against the Angels, the Rockies lost 10-7 after holding a lead in the early innings. Despite strong performances from players like Ryan McMahon and Ezequiel Tovar, the team struggled to maintain their advantage.

Los Angeles Angels Analysis

The Los Angeles Angels are currently ranked 26th in the Majors in runs scored, but they have shown improvement in their last two games with a total of 18 runs. In their recent game against the Rockies, Matt Thaiss had an impressive five RBI, Taylor Ward contributed three RBI, and Jo Adell hit a solo home run. Despite their struggles at the plate this season, Ward leads the team in RBI and is tied for the team lead in home runs. Adell, on the other hand, has been hitting below expectations but managed to hit a solo home run in the last game. The Angels also rank 28th in team ERA. Davis Daniel will be starting the next game for the Angels after a rough outing in his last start. Overall, the Angels have a power ranking of 21 and a record of 46-60. Their recent performance against the Colorado Rockies has been less than stellar, with the Rockies winning 2 out of 3 matchups.

Colorado Rockies look to break losing streak against Los Angeles Angels with pitching advantage in upcoming game

The Colorado Rockies are currently on a five-game losing streak, while the Los Angeles Angels have won their last two games. Both teams are significantly far from playoff contention, with the Rockies having the second-fewest wins in baseball. However, in this upcoming game, the Rockies may have an advantage due to the pitching matchup. Despite being inconsistent in his last start, Freeland has shown promise in previous outings. On the other hand, Daniel has struggled in his recent starts after a strong season debut. While the Rockies have the lowest bullpen ERA, the Angels rank 25th in that category. Based on these factors, it is predicted that Freeland will perform better, leading the Rockies to victory. With odds at +115, it is recommended to consider betting on the Rockies for this game.
