According to the Los Angeles Angels standings, they currently sit in third place in the American League West, six games behind the Texas Rangers.

Taking another look at the White Sox vs Angels odds, the Angels are favored, but Cease strikes out a lot of hitters. Both of these teams are in the top half of the league when it comes to striking out.
However, both starters have ERA’s over 4, so the over comes into play as well. When it comes down to it, these teams are pretty evenly matched, so expect a close game.
The Angels’ bullpen has the fifth-best ERA in Major League Baseball, so take the Angels to cover the 1.5.
- MLB Pick: Angels -1.5
