(919) Los Angeles Angels at (920) Athletics
Date/Time:
Play:
Total Over 10.0 (-120) K Hendricks (RHP) Must Start

2% Take the Athletics – Angels OVER (#919-920) (list Hendricks for LAA)

The bottom fell out for Kyle Hendricks in Chicago last year as he ranked among the worst full year starters in MLB.  This year with the Angels hasn’t been much better.  He’s a fly ball pitcher; Sutter Health Field in Sacramento has been a nightmare for pitchers who don’t keep the ball on the ground – just ask Luis Severino, who signed with the A’s this past offseason: “It’s tough to pitch here.  You have a routine for your whole life. You come here and you have to work around whatever you have here. It’s tough.”  I’m not expecting a gem from Hendricks here and the Angels best relief arms aren’t fresh tonight; a bullpen that has been used extensively twice in the last three games. 

That said, LA is crushing the ball right now: 27 runs scored in their last four ballgames; just shy of six runs per game on this road trip.  Gunner Hogland has cashed back-2-back Overs in his last two starts after throwing a gem in Miami in his MLB debut.  And while the Athletics bats didn’t do much over the weekend in San Francisco, let’s not forget that they went 5-1 to the Over on their last homestand and are 14-8 to the Over on this field full season.  On a warm night in Sacramento with the wind blowing out, expect runs in bunches!  Don't wait - this total is getting bet UP in early action this morning, for good reason!  Take the OVER

The Gold Sheet MLB Tab Major League Baseball

View profile arrow-icon
Event:
(919) Los Angeles Angels at (920) Athletics
Date/Time:
Play:
Nolan Schanuel (LAA) Over 1.5 Runs + Hits + RBI

The Angels' first baseman is hitting .322 with a .412 on-base percentage in the month of May. Schanuel has cleared this runs + hits + RBI number in nine of his last 11 games, including a 3-for-4 night on Monday in Sacramento. Twelve of his 13 extra-base hits this season have come against right-hand pitching, which is what he will see against Gunnar Hoglund on Tuesday. In 69 plate appearances thus far in May, Schanuel has only struck out six times so it's a safe bet that the ball will be put into play when he's at the plate. Hoglund gave up three home runs in 5.1 innings in his last start against the Dodgers. Hitting conditions should be favorable at Sutter Health Park with warm temperatures and winds blowing straight out to center field.

Free MLB Picks - 2025 MLB Picks and Predictions From Experts

Here you can find free MLB expert betting picks from WagerTalk's elite team of handicappers. Detailed game previews, analysis, and predictions backed by statistics. Get going with 100% FREE hot MLB picks of the day - get an edge.
Run Line Picks, Moneylines, MLB Props, MLB Parlays from WagerTalk: 

WagerTalk offers you free MLB predictions and betting picks every day of 2025 for MLB games - from the Pirates to the Giants to.. well, every team in Major League Baseball.   And don't forget our daily HR Props!

What Free MLB Picks Does WagerTalk Offer In 2025?

WagerTalk offers every type of MLB expert picks you could possibly want.  At WagerTalk you'll find daily free MLB picks that include: 

Moneyline MLB Picks Free:  

Naturally.  You have to offer moneyline picks and WagerTalk certainly does for MLB. 

Free MLB RunLine Picks: 

You'll find MLB runline picks galore at WagerTalk.  So what is the runline and why should you bet on it?  Well, simple!

The runline is baseball's version of the point spread. When betting on the runline, the favorite is -1.5 runs on the spread, with the underdog at +1.5 runs. Betting on the favorite requires your team to win its game by two or more runs. Truly, the runline is the great equalizer - it's just a little easier to place a bet when you've got a 2 run head start, right?

WagerTalk's expert MLB handicappers are runline prediction masterminds.  

Totals Betting Best Picks for MLB:

Total runs betting picks are an absolute staple of WagerTalk MLB handicappers. A major component of how to bet on baseball, a total runs wager is super straightforward, as the customer is picking whether the two teams will score over or under the listed number of runs combined during the game. The great part of a total runs pick is that you're basically just rooting for a ton of scoring.  Everybody loves that. 

Free Hitter Props Markets MLB Predictions - Including Daily Home Run Prop Picks:

WagerTalk offers MLB player props for hitters throughout the year.  A great betting market, you're simply betting on how a specific batter will perform during a game - the perfect market to bet if you're more of a player of an MLB hitter than an MLB team.  Find even more free MLB picks and player props at our sister site. 

Our daily HR home prop article is the most popular such article online!

Pitching Props Free MLB Picks of the Day:

You'll find MLB pitching prop picks from WagerTalk all during the long long MLB season.   Like hitting props, bettors can get some terrific ML picks free from WagerTalk - pitcher prop picks that help them select how their ace pitcher will perform on the mound. Each starting pitcher usually receives a list of pitching props, such as: 'Total Pitching Strikeouts', 'Total Hits Allowed', 'Total Outs Recorded', 'Total Earned Runs Allowed', and more.

Same Game Parlay MLB Best Bets: 

Now and then you can find MLB same game parlay picks from expert MLB handicappers at WagerTalk.

Which American League Teams Have Won The Most Regular Season Games?

The top winning team here is the Seattle Mariners of 2001.  They grabbed 116 wins, but then simply choked and lost the ALCS. After the Mariners the Yankees in 1998 won a ton of games - 114, in fact, and won the World Series to boot.

After those two MLB behemoths, the Cleveland Indians won 111 times in the regular season in 1954,  the Yankees captured 110 wins way back in 1927 and then we have the Baltimore Orioles winning 109 wins in 1969 - but failed to win the World Series.

 

Which National League Teams Have Won The Most Regular Season Games?

The Chicago Cubs take it.  116 games in 1906. Nuts.  They went 116-36.  The LA Dodgers plop in behind them, going 111-51 in 2022.  The 1909 Pirates pulled off 110 wins.  The Mets (really! The Mets!) won a whopping 108 games in 1986 and the Cincy Red of 1975 tied them at 108 games won as well. 

Which Teams Have Won the Most World Series'?

Wait, the World Series has been happening since 1903?  Indeed it has!  And man have we seen a lot of winners and quite a few dynasties. 

Naturally, the Yankees top the list of dynasties - they've captured 27 World Series titles.  Following WAY behind the Yankees are the St Louis Cardinals with 11 titles, the Boston Red Sox and Oakland Athletics with 9 apiece, and the San Francisco Giants with 8 World Series titles.

Which Player Has Won the Most World Series Titles?

Yogi Berra.  Nothing else to say here, obviously it was Yogi.  10 World Series titles!
