Why the Angels on Sunday at -105...the Angels come into Sunday's Prime Time affair against the Dodgers after taking a 3-1 L on Saturday and as losers of four out of their L7 Games. Looking for the home series win, the Angels will send Andrew Heaney to the bump who comes in with a BOB Score of 161. Looking into Hean Dogs LS on the road against the Mariners, he allowed 3 ER over 7 IP on 5 H, 10 Ks and 2 BBs. In that start, Heaney posted a contact% of 65% (season low) and a SwStr% of 18% (season high). In Heaney's L2 Starts against the Mariners and Red Sox, both coming on the road, he saw all three pitches rise in average velocity above SA. With that being said, this is a trustworthy spot to back Heaney at home who has posted a 2.18 era compared to his 5.77 road era. Expecting a good month from Heaney who has seen his BABIP against drop in each month from .429 to .275 to .236. Alex Wood will take the ball for the Dodgers and bring his 4.04 road era with him. In Wood's LS against the Pirates at home, he saw all three pitches drop in average velocity below SA. Going to fade Wood in this road spot where he sees his K/BB drop from 6.00 at home to 4.67 on the road and a BABIP against jump from .279 at home to .317 on the road. Wood's numbers are on the decline as he has seen his K/BB drop in each month from 10 to 4 to 3.83 and a steady BABIP against increase from .248 to .310 to .350. Angels have faced three LH Starters over their L10 Days while the Dodgers haven't seen a LH Starter since 6/29. Dodgers currently taking 60% of the action with line movement from -127 to -105.
