Los Angeles Angels vs Oakland Athletics Prediction and Betting Odds August 2

Brian Ochsner is an MLB analyst for WagerTalk. Los Angeles Angels and Oakland Athletics play each other on Tuesday night at Yankee Stadium.

The Los Angeles Angels host the Oakland Athletics Tuesday night. First pitch is scheduled for 9:38 PM EDT. The Halos dropped three of four games to the Rangers at home last weekend. A's dropped two of three games against the White Sox in Chicago.

Cole Irvin has been the A's best starting pitcher this season with a 3.05 ERA, an impressive 1.04 WHIP and a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 74. Oakland has a 39-65 record and is last in the American League West.

Mike Trout is injured and the team is out of the playoff picture. Noah Syndergaard has been good for the Los Angeles Angels this season. The team doesn't profile well against left-handed pitchers. Oakland Athletics are the highest strikeout team in baseball with 985.

Neither team has a great offense. Irvin is the better pitcher than Syndergaard. Both teams' bullpens are in the bottom 10 for ERA. I'll take the A's on the 1st 5 innings moneyline.
