In this article, we will formulate a LA Angels vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction for this MLB Game on Tuesday, August 13th, at Angel Stadium.

Blue Jays Leaned on Pitching

The Blue Jays leaned on the pitching on Monday, and they were able to secure the 4-2 victory. Bowden Francis went seven innings, giving up one hit and one run. The Blue Jays are averaging 4.08 runs, while their pitching is giving up 4.84 runs per Game. The offense is ranked 25th in the league, while the pitching is ranked 27th. Vladimir Guerrero has hit 23 home runs and driven in 76 RBIs so far this season. Getting the start for the Blue Jays will be Kevin Gausman who sits with a 10-8 record and an ERA of 4.42. In his last start against the Baltimore Orioles, he went eight innings, giving up three hits and two runs. 

Angels Look to Bounce Back

The Angels’ offense scored only two runs on Monday, and they are going to need the offense to be better here. Davis Daniel wasn’t good enough, going five innings giving up eight hits and four runs. The Angels are averaging 4.08 runs, while their pitching is giving up 4.82 runs per Game. The offense is ranked 24th in the league, while the pitching is ranked 26th. Zach Neto has hit 17 home runs and driven in 61 RBIs so far this season. Getting the start for the Angels will be Carson Fulmer who sits with an 0-2 record and an ERA of 3.74. In his last start against the New York Yankees, he went four innings, giving up seven hits and two runs. 

Why the Angels Will Beat the Blue Jays 

  • The Angels have won eight of their last nine games as underdogs after playing the previous day.
  • The Blue Jays have lost six of their last eight games as favorites following a win.
  • The underdogs have covered the run line in eight of the Angels’ last nine games.
  • The Blue Jays have failed to cover the run line in 15 of their last 17 games as favorites against American League opponents.

LA Angels vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction

This Game is going to be lower scoring. Fulmer sits with an ERA of 3.74, and he’s going to step up in a big way. In his last start, he gave up only two runs. Gausman has a higher ERA, but in his last start he gave up two runs, and I don’t trust the Angels bats to find much success here. Both of the pitchers are going to have strong starts, and that will be the difference here. Back the under to cash here.
