The Angels rank 3rd in home runs this season with 88, which shows their power-hitting ability. They also have a slugging percentage ranked 9th in the league at .405. This power at the plate gives them a good chance to win games with big hits.

The Angels are favored with a moneyline of -167 against the Athletics at +140. The Angels have a better batting average and slugging percentage, ranking 4th and 5th, respectively. The Athletics struggle with a 23rd-ranked batting average. My model projects the Angels to win 6-4, making the Angels a solid pick to win straight up.

The total for the game is set at 9.0 runs. Both teams have high earned run averages, with the Athletics at 5.79 and the Angels at 4.88. This suggests runs could be plentiful. My model projects a total of 10 runs, so the recommendation is to take the over.

Angels Look to Extend Dominance Over A’s in Tuesday Showdown

The Los Angeles Angels are absolutely loving their matchups against the Oakland Athletics this season! So far, they’re 5-0 against their AL West rivals, showing no signs of slowing down. After a solid 7-4 win on Monday, the Angels have now racked up an impressive 38 runs against Oakland’s pitching this year.

Angels Offense Firing on All Cylinders

Monday’s game saw the Halos’ offense humming. Jo Adell blasted a homer and drove in three runs, while Mike Trout added two RBIs. Zach Neto and Nolan Schanuel each chipped in with two hits and an RBI, helping the Angels secure their fifth win in their last seven games overall. Schanuel summed it up perfectly: “Our offense was working. We put the good work in and it paid off.”

Denzel Clarke’s Spectacular Show

While the Athletics are struggling with their 22nd loss in 26 games, rookie center fielder Denzel Clarke continues to amaze. He pulled off his third incredible catch in just three weeks in the majors on Monday! Clarke made a “flat-out robbery” in the first inning, leaping over the wall to snag a drive from Schanuel. This jaw-dropping play follows two other “MLB’s best catch of the week” honors against the Orioles and Blue Jays. Clarke modestly said, “I’m always very tentative to say this was the best one, but I think this is probably the best one I’ve ever made.” Even Angels manager Ron Washington, a 73-year-old baseball veteran, raved, “One of the best I’ve seen. That was an athlete on that wall. He caught the ball, he rolled, jumped down on his feet. He’s a gymnast.” Schanuel, who was robbed, humorously added, “I didn’t want to watch it because I would get too mad.” On the offensive side for Oakland, JJ Bleday and Max Muncy each hit two-run homers.

Pitching Matchup: Soriano vs. Spence/Bido

For Tuesday’s game, the A’s will face Angels right-hander Jose Soriano (4-5, 4.11 ERA), who’s looking to bounce back from his roughest outing of the season against the Red Sox. Soriano gave up seven runs in just 3 2/3 innings last Wednesday. Interestingly, he did defeat the Athletics on May 19th, allowing three runs over six innings. However, his career numbers against the A’s are a bit shaky, with a 1-2 record and a 9.64 ERA in five appearances. Watch out for Brent Rooker (4-for-7 with a homer) and Lawrence Butler (3-for-8 with a blast) who have had success against Soriano.

The Athletics will counter with a tandem approach, starting Mitch Spence (2-1, 4.09 ERA) as an opener before turning it over to fellow right-hander Osvaldo Bido (2-4, 6.14). Spence has a solid 3.46 ERA in six career appearances against the Los Angeles Angels. Bido, recently back from Triple-A Las Vegas, will try to improve his 1-1 record and 7.27 ERA in four career outings against the Angels; Taylor Ward even hit a grand slam off him last season.

Roster Moves & Injury Updates

In roster news, Athletics rookie Nick Kurtz (left hip flexor strain) was activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday. The 22-year-old, a fourth overall pick in the 2024 draft, went hitless in his return but looks to add pop to the A’s lineup. To make room, Logan Davidson was optioned to Las Vegas. For the Angels, first baseman/outfielder LaMonte Wade Jr., recently acquired from the Giants, is expected to be activated for Tuesday’s game. However, outfielder Jorge Soler (groin) underwent an MRI and is a candidate to go on the injured list.
