Houston Astros vs. Los Angeles Angels
Sunday, June 09, 2024 – 04:07 PM ET at Angel Stadium
The Angels Stink!
After all, the Los Angeles Angels have hit a .137 ISO and wOBA of .267 against righties over the last 30 days.
They’ll face veteran ace Justin Verlander, who hasn’t had the best season of his career. However, he’s good enough to shut down underperforming offenses like the Angels.
The Angels don’t have a single batter hitting a wOBA of above .337 and six batters with an ISO of no better than .132 against righties in the last 30 days.
No Kyle Tucker, no Problem!
The Astros will have to perform offensively without their best hitter, Kyle Tucker. However, they’re competing against Patrick Sandoval of the Angels, who is a lefty pitcher.
The Astros rarely strike out against lefties. Ultimately, the projected lineup has struck out just 13.1% of the time against lefties in the last month. With the Astros putting the ball in play, good things will happen.
