LA Dodgers vs LA Angels Prediction

Until proven otherwise, the LA Angels are the LA Angels, an underwhelming franchise that lets you down more times than not and can’t string together offense. Zach Plesac is also hard to trust given his lack of consistent reps dating back to last season. Tyler Glasnow has had more dominant seasons, but he’s been well above average this season and is missing bats at an elite clip. The Dodgers should win this Game with their ac eon the hill, and I’ll lay the RL to shave down the juice.
