The Angels are 5-2 already against the A’s this season, including a sweep of them at home in April. The A’s currently sit in 4th place - ahead of Texas - in a division in which only the Astros are above .500. The A’s were 3-3 last week but are riding high after back to back walk offs against Detroit on Saturday and Sunday.
Mike Trout has been good against the pitchers in game 1 and 2, but will he play?
On paper, and so far this season, the Angels are the better team than the A’s, but I don’t think we’ll see another sweep.
