Athletics vs. Los Angeles Pick

  • Athletics vs. Los Angeles Spread Pick

Both teams are struggling thus far this season as each is well below .500. Despite that trend, Los Angeles will have the edge on Saturday.

Look for Los Angeles to ride their hot hand against the Athletics on Saturday, leading to a victory at home.

  • Athletics vs. Los Angeles Over/Under Pick

Neither team has an elite offense heading into this matchup, but the Athletics will start a struggling pitcher. Los Angeles has also scored a ton during their recent hot streak, and that will continue in this matchup. Look for runs to come in bunches on Saturday as each team continues to climb towards 500. Take the over Saturday night as the Los Angeles Angels do the work to get the home win against the Athletics.
