TAMPA BAY RAYS VS LA ANGELS PREDICTION
Tampa Bay has been playing good baseball while winning its last 3 games and scoring 20 runs in that time. The Angels have been on the opposite side losing its last 3 games scoring only 6 runs in those games. Ohtani skipped his start a few days ago either out of caution or another reason but either way, it’s never a good sign for a starting pitcher to skip a start. The Angels bullpen is also much worse than the Rays and Ohtani typically only goes about 4 innings per start. The Rays bullpen is fully loaded being one of the best in MLB. Look for the Rays to continue to roll in this one to get another win.
