Rangers vs Angels Prediction

The Angels are 5-3 in their last 8 meetings against the Rangers and are 4-1 in their last 5 meetings in Los Angeles.

In this Rangers vs Angels Prediction, the Angels are coming as -125 home favorites. The wrong team is favored in this matchup, as the Angels are putting a struggling Reid Detmers on the bump, who had only two quality starts this season, has a 1-5 record and has been terrible at home. On the flip side, I trust Gore more and he has 3 earned runs in his last two starts and the Rangers have a superior bullpen, ranking 4^th in bullpen ERA in baseball this season. Take the Rangers to win for plus money.
