The Los Angeles Angels Can Win If…
The Los Angeles Angels come into this series opener trying to rebound from an 11-2 loss to the Mariners. Despite the defeat, Logan Davidson provided a clean inning on the mound, while Oswald Peraza and Christian Moore each homered to show the club’s offensive power. If that power continues against Milwaukee, the Angels can keep this contest competitive.
The Angels still feature a dangerous lineup. Zach Neto has delivered 26 home runs this season, while Jo Adell has 36, placing him among the league’s best sluggers. Their home run ability makes Los Angeles a threat to put up quick runs, an especially important factor against a pitcher like Freddy Peralta who thrives on rhythm.
Caden Dana gets the start for the Angels. While his ERA sits on the high side, he has shown flashes of swing-and-miss ability. If Dana can locate his pitches early and avoid walks, he can frustrate Milwaukee’s lineup long enough for the Angels’ bats to give them a chance.
The Milwaukee Brewers Can Win If…
The Milwaukee Brewers are looking to get back on track after a 3-2 loss to the Cardinals in their series finale. In that game, Caleb Durbin and Danny Jansen both went deep, showing the Brewers’ ability to generate runs with power. Andrew Vaughn added two singles, reinforcing Milwaukee’s lineup depth.
The Brewers’ offense is one of the most balanced in baseball. They rank 3rd in team batting average at .260 and 2nd in on-base percentage at .332. That combination of contact and patience gives them consistent opportunities to score runs, especially against a young, inconsistent pitcher like Dana.
Freddy Peralta gets the ball for Milwaukee. His 16-6 record, 2.69 ERA, and 1.09 WHIP highlight his status as one of the NL’s top pitchers. Peralta’s strikeout stuff and ability to limit base runners make him a nightmare matchup for an Angels lineup that has struggled to generate rallies. If he commands the strike zone and avoids the long ball, Milwaukee will be tough to beat.
The Lean
According to MLB odds, the Brewers are heavy favorites at -259 on the moneyline, while the Angels sit at +214. The model projects a 5-3 Brewers victory, making Milwaukee the clear pick. With Peralta’s elite form and the Brewers’ offensive balance, the safer bet is backing the home team.
The total is set at 8.0 runs, with the over at -117 and the under at -104. My projection lands exactly on 8 runs, which leans toward the under. Milwaukee’s pitching has been outstanding all year, and the Angels’ offense remains too inconsistent to inspire confidence in an over play.
Key Betting Trends
| Team | Last 10 Games | Moneyline Record | Over/Under Record |
|---|---|---|---|
| Milwaukee Brewers | 7-3 | 6-4 | 4-6 |
| Los Angeles Angels | 3-7 | 2-8 | 6-4 |
The Brewers have consistently cashed tickets, winning seven of their last ten, while the Angels continue to struggle. Totals bettors may note that Angels’ games have been trending over, thanks to inconsistent pitching, but Milwaukee’s strong staff often pulls totals under.
Players to Watch
| Player | Team | Stat Highlight |
|---|---|---|
| Freddy Peralta | Brewers | 16-6 record, 2.69 ERA, NL leader in wins |
| Caleb Durbin | Brewers | .324 over last 21 games, 4 HR in stretch |
| Danny Jansen | Brewers | Recent HR power surge |
| Jo Adell | Angels | 36 HR, middle-of-order power |
| Zach Neto | Angels | 26 HR, improving slugger |
| Mike Trout | Angels | 399 career HR, batting .462 vs Brewers |
Mike Trout looms as a milestone watch, needing one more homer for 400. Peralta headlines Milwaukee’s rotation as their ace, while Durbin and Jansen bring unexpected depth at the plate. Adell and Neto remain the Angels’ best chance at cracking the scoreboard with big swings.
Game Preview Recap
The Milwaukee Brewers have already secured a playoff spot and hold MLB’s best record at 91-59. With a comfortable lead in the NL Central and a two-game edge for the league’s top seed, they now look to sharpen their form. Freddy Peralta will aim to bounce back after his first loss since July, which ended a streak of 30 consecutive scoreless innings.
The Los Angeles Angels, sitting at 69-81, are playing spoiler at this stage of the season. Rookie starter Caden Dana is still adjusting to the majors, posting a 5.59 ERA in September. While he struck out nine in his last outing, his lack of command led to five runs and five walks in under five innings.
Caleb Durbin has emerged as a surprise contributor for Milwaukee, hitting .324 over his last 21 games. The Angels counter with Mike Trout, who is one home run away from the 400 mark. Trout has a strong track record against the Brewers, hitting .462 with four homers in 11 games, all at American Family Field.
Milwaukee has not lost a series to the Angels at home since 2013, and with Peralta on the mound, the Brewers are set up well to extend that dominance. The Angels will need Trout, Adell, and Neto to carry the offense if they hope to pull the upset.
