Colorado Rockies vs Los Angeles Angels 3/8/2023 Picks Predictions Previews

The Colorado Rockies will go against the Los Angeles Angels in MLB action in Tempe Diablo Stadium Tempe, AZ, on Wednesday, March 8, 2023, at 4:10 PM ET. A whole week of games was completed for the Los Angeles Angels.

Baseball is so welcome back, and Opening Day can’t arrive soon enough. Shohei Ohtani will participate in the WBC. He’ll be entertaining to see on the big stage.

He demonstrated with his strong bat swing that the pitch clock won’t trouble him during the regular season. He appears poised to win his second AL MVP honor.

For the top five in this rotation, nothing changed, and nothing will change unless an injury occurs (again, fingers crossed).

Shohei Ohtani is the ace, Tyler Anderson had a promising debut, Sandoval and Detmers are both on the rise, and Suarez should have a successful 2023 season.

As opposed to Griffin Canning, Tucker Davidson should be on the roster. Canning is slated to throw on Monday but did not yet do so.

With his first start since July 2021, it will be crucial for him to demonstrate to the Angels where he stands physically.

If Canning isn’t prepared, Jaime Barria, Chase Silseth, and Tucker Davidson will be vying for the sixth starter position.

The three pitchers featured did not each have particularly strong outings. Following a strong first start, Davidson gave up two runs in two innings in his second start. Silseth gave up two runs in two innings.

The Colorado Rockies are 3-2 in their previous 5 contests against the spread.
The Colorado Rockies are 37-43 in their previous road contests against the spread.
The totals went OVER in 1 of the Rockies’ last 5 matches.

It was another disastrous season for the Los Angeles Angels in 2022, as the team placed third in the AL West 2022 with a 73-89 record.

Manager Joe Madden was removed from his duties less than sixty matches into the season and was replaced by Phil Nevin, who did not even experience the performance boost that is commonly observed after a manager is fired.

The Angels did not finish above.500 since 2015, and they did not make the playoffs since getting swept in the ALDS in 2014 after winning their division with 98 victories, despite fielding one of the best players of his generation and the best two-way player since Babe Ruth.

The team’s ownership appeared to be changing at one point over the offseason, but Arte Moreno, the team’s current owner since 2003, declared in late January 2023 that he is no longer considering selling the club.

On paper, the rotation looks marginally better than it did in 2022, with Anderson an improvement over the outgoing Noah Syndergaard and Michael Lorenzen.

In addition to Estevez, the bullpen gained a lot of depth possibilities as minor league free agents. A number of the pitchers from last season are returning.

The LA Angels are 3-2 in their previous 5 contests against the spread.
The LA Angels are 39-40 in their previous road contests against the spread.
The totals went OVER in 1 of the Angels’ previous 5 contests.

Colorado Rockies vs Los Angeles Angels. The MLB pick for this game is the Los Angeles Angels. Matt Moore was the acquisition to the Angels bullpen that they needed. Moore just had a successful season with Texas.

He’s an improvement over Zack Weiss, who was in my initial projection, even though it feels doubtful that he will repeat that season. Moore will be joined by Estevez and Herget as Phil Nevin’s late-game high-leverage weapons.

Estevez is the likely candidate to be the Angels’ closer, but all three will pitch huge innings and play a crucial role in their success in 2023. The Los Angeles Angels will win to a predicted score of 6-3.
