Guardians vs Angels Expert Betting Advice
This is the first series between these teams in the 2023 regular season. They will meet again for a four-game set on September 7th-10th from Angel Stadium. In the 2022 campaign, Los Angeles prevailed in 4 of 7 meetings against the Guardians.
Both sides enjoyed home cooking as Los Angeles swept a four-game series at Angel Stadium in April while the Guardians struck back with a three-game sweep at Progressive Field in August.
Two things really stand out. First being that runs late in games will be tough to come by as this series features two of the MLBs strongest bullpens.
Second, the Guardians face southpaw starters in all three games. Considering they rank dead last with a .112 ISO against lefties, runs could be hard for Cleveland to come by in general.
The strongest Angel starter is in Game 3 with Patrick Sandoval. Sandoval who has held current Guardians to a .447 OPS across 38 plate appearances with no home runs.
It isn’t the largest sample size, but the game will start at 11:35 AM local time and that can throw of hitter’s routines and timing. Take the Cleveland team total under in Game 3.
