Arizona Diamondbacks vs LA Angels Prediction

I’ll lean toward the Angels here. Probably not touching it, though. Suarez likely won’t be in the game for too long. Over his last three outings Suarez has three earned runs in 6.1 innings total on six hits and three walks. None of those went longer than 3.1 innings. As for Montgomery, he’s struggled lately with 14 earned runs on 17 hits and six walks over his last 6.0 innings.

The Angels should have some early opportunities to score of Montgomery continues to struggle. This one could get out of hand quickly on either side, so a high total wouldn’t be a surprise.
