Angels vs Rangers Picks
8:05 p.m. ET | Fox Sports 1
Shohei Ohtani gets the start on the rubber for the Angels tonight.
The MLB betting system with today’s pick usually spits out a prediction on Angels games whenever the two-way phenom gets the start.
Combining Ohtani’s propensity to strike out hitters (12.1 K/9) and Rangers starter Nathan Eovaldi’s stat line this season, it set off Action Network’s High-Strikeout Pitchers PRO system – and it’s a bet on the Angels vs. Rangers under 8.5.
The betting model looks for:
-
- The under
- Between two high-strikeout starting pitchers
- When the closing total is 8 or more
There are 8.5’s out there and 8’s at plus-money, so check out our MLB odds page for the best prices.
