Angels vs Giants Prediction
I’m on the Giants here. I’m just going to continue rolling with the Giants as long as this team continues to provide betting value on the road. I’m not going to hold anything against the Giants after a series split with a tough Phillies team, but the Angels, after a hot start, have regressed back to a team that’s struggling to drum up consistent offense on a night to night basis. I think the Giants snag the win and get the value on the road again, so give me San Francisco here.
