THE PLAY: Los Angeles Angels -129 Walbert Urena (RHP), Jeffrey Springs (LHP) Must Start
Ureña should give the Angels a significant edge over Springs. In his last start, Ureña delivered seven shutout innings. He struck out nine without walking a batter. On the season, Ureña has a stingy 2.74 ERA. He's made 26 starts and 13 of them have been quality. That includes six quality starts out of his last 10. With a 4-14 record and a terrible 6.18 ERA (6.94 at home!) Springs allows more than twice as many runs as Ureña. Only five of his 28 starts have been quality. Last time out, Springs allowed six earned runs in just 3 1/3 innings. Let's go with Ureña.
THE PLAY: Iowa State +9.5 (-115)
The Utes are a strong team and they're off to a hot start. However, I expect them to have their hands full on Saturday. While the Cyclones have a lot of new faces this season, they're playing well so far. They're off a confidence-building blowout win over Bowling Green and are 2-1. The lone loss was by just three points, at Iowa. These teams met at Utah in 2024 and the Cyclones won by a field goal. Don't be surprised if this one is also closer than expected.
