Point Spread: 1.50 | -150.00 LA Angels (Away)
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: LA Angels +1.5
The A's dominated this series last year, but I think that trend ends tonight. Andrew Heaney gets the nod for the visitors and he was 4-6 with a 4.91 ERA last year. Frankie Montas was 9-2 with a 2.63 ERA over six starts last season. Montas though seems doomed for regression in my opinion, and he draws a tough opponent out of the gate in facing Mike Trout and company. I believe the Angels got better in the offseason and I expect that to pay dividends for them in the early going.
T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Angels
