I have been waiting for this spot to bet against Zac Gallen and the day has arrived! His home/away splits are drastically different, his opponent’s BA compared to his xBA is a drastic jump as well. His ERA in 2023 is 3.02 overall, but 5.08 on the road with a WHIP of 1.38. Anthony Rendon made his way back into the lineup this past Friday, while only going 1/7 from the plate he did smash a home run last night. Gallen has never faced Ohtani or Trout, so I believe that will be a challenge within itself. Zac’s xSLG% is .404 which is a career high for him.

The Halos counter with Reid Detmers who was electric in the month of June and looks to carry this form into the All-Star break. In his last 4 starts of June he squared off versus the Cubs, Dodgers, White Sox and Rangers lineups, no slouches in there. Giving up a total of 3 ER’s, 2 via the long ball, while pitching into the 6th or further in all 4 and struck out 8 or more batters in all 4. Also take note the D’backs are hitting .191 vs lefties in their last 10. Let’s back the Angels today with a nice unit upgrade to end the week!
