Red Sox vs Angels Prediction

Boston was able to snap their losing streak with a big win on Saturday and they will look to make it two in a row here. The Red Sox have had some recent pitching issues, but they do have the best team ERA in the MLB. Los Angeles has an elevated team ERA so far this season, but Tyler Anderson has been very good. Anderson has allowed 0 earned runs and eight hits over 14.0 innings against the Rays and Marlins. Boston is starting Brayan Bello, who has allowed seven earned runs and 14 hits over 15.1 innings against the Orioles, Athletics, and Mariners. I know Tyler Anderson has been very sharp to start the season, but I just don’t think he is good enough to keep it up. Take the Red Sox here.
