Mets vs Angels MLB Betting Preview

By Chris Prince

Great price at -120 (already up to -140 on some other books) for Mike Trout against right-hander Christian Scott and the Mets. Trout has been incredible against RHP over his career, and he's taken it to another level this season. He's delivered a .423 wOBA, a big .310 ISO, and a 57.4% hard-contact rate, and his barrel rate jumps off the page at a staggering 26.2%, all of which has come with a low .226 BABIP.

Scott likely doesn't last long in this game, and while this Mets bullpen has been surging of late, Trout has also hit LHP well this season, so he should see advantageous matchups throughout the game.

Pick: Mike Trout Over 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs
