In this Angels vs Diamondbacks Prediction, the Diamondbacks are coming as -185 home favorites. I like the pitching in this matchup, as both pitchers have a combined 4.57 ERA, with Rodriguez sitting on a 1.93 home ERA and Aldegheri having given up just one run across his last three games played. The Dbacks have forgotten how to hit lefties, ranking just 27th against southpaws in the past 10 days and both games in this series had 7 total runs. Take the under 9 in this one.
