Los Angeles Angels vs Oakland Athletics Prediction

I’ll try the A’s in this one. At least some of that is due to Canning’s recent struggles. Over his last three starts combined Canning is 0-3 with 12 earned runs in 17.1 innings total from 19 hits and five walks. Oakland should have some early opportunities if Canning can’t get it together.

On Sunday the A’s could only muster three team hits—two of which were from Miguel Andujar. The good news is that the Oakland pen was good, and Harris really only had a couple of mistakes in his six innings. I like the A’s to bounce back Monday.
