The over is 7-1 in Angels last 8 Saturday games. The Marlins are 1-4 in the last 5 meetings in Los Angeles.
Randy’s Pick
The Miami Marlins and big plus money is intriguing with the way they're swinging the bats, but Edward Cabrera continues to have issues with his control and those things don't improve on the road. Shohei Ohtani continues to pitch well, and he's even better at home, where he has a 2.45 ERA and .131 allowed batting average. Give me the Angels and the RL for max betting value.
