They enter this game with a 78-49 record overall and have a road record of 33-29. This is the series opener of a 3-game series with the Angels on Monday with the series finale of their series against the Oakland Athletics still to be played on Sunday. Their offense ranks 4th in the MLB with a .753 OPS. Clarke Schmidt is their starting pitcher on Sunday while Frankie Montas is making his start in this game on Monday. He is 4-10 with a 3.84 ERA this season. His team won 2 of their last 3 games this season with him making an appearance. In his last start, he allowed 2 ER, 0 HRs, and 1 BB with 6 Ks on 6 hits through 5.2 IP against the New York Mets. 

 

The Angels enter this game on a 2 game winning streak. They lost their last series against the Tampa Bay Rays getting swept 4-0 in a 4-game series. They enter this game with a 54-73 record overall and have a home record of 26-36. This is the 1st game of a 3-game series with the Yankees on Monday with the 3rd game of their series against the Toronto Blue Jays still to be played on Sunday. Their offense ranks 26th in the MLB with a .673 OPS. Tucker Davidson is their starting pitcher on Sunday while José Suarez is making his start in this game on Monday. He is 4-6 with a 4.19 ERA this season. His team lost their last 2 straight games this season with him making an appearance. In his last start, he allowed 3 ER, 1 HR, and 0 BB with 5 Ks on 8 hits through 5.1 IP against the Tampa Bay Rays.

The current betting odds have the Yankees listed as a big favorite in this game. The Angels have been awful over the last few weeks as they have been picking up a lot of losses recently. They just won their last series against the Blue Jays, taking the first 2 games of the series, but their offense still has not been great overall and neither has their pitching. The Yankees dropped one of their games with the A's over the weekend but they have been getting much better over the last week, winning a lot of their games with some big scores, and they are slowly breaking out of the slump they were in. Their pitching has been a lot better in these games and they have been scoring a lot of runs too. The Angels have been very inconsistent as a team all season and they have an awful record while the Yankees are one of the best teams in the MLB and are trying to lock up this AL East division with their massive lead. They should be able to bounce back in this series and continue their recent streak of winning with another big win in this game. The best way to place a bet here is on the Yankees to win this game on the runline.
