Angels vs. Astros Prediction
Tyler Anderson is on the mound for the Angels, and this is a matchup we’re absolutely targeting. Anderson has struggled with the long ball throughout his career, and that trend has continued into this season — giving up a 2.25 HR/9 vs left-handed bats already. He’s been getting shelled, and now he has to face Yordan Alvarez, one of the most dangerous hitters in baseball.
Anderson leans heavily on his fastball, throwing it 40% of the time, and that’s where Yordan does the most damage. Against left-handed fastballs last season, Yordan posted a 15.79% barrel rate, a crazy 64% hard-hit rate, and has already taken Anderson deep three times in his career. The numbers, the history, and the matchup all line up perfectly here.
With Yordan seeing the ball well and already having success against this exact pitch mix, this feels like the perfect spot for him to add another bomb to the highlight reel. The books are still giving us solid value on this one, so we’re locking it in.
