Athletics vs. Angels Best Bets Today – August 3, 2022: Offenses Will Start Slow

Athletics vs. Angels Betting Preview:

9:38 p.m. ET

Another day, another NRFI. Today we get a dream matchup between two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani and James Kaprielian.

Kaprielian started the year slow, but is starting to show the potential he displayed last season. In his last 11 innings pitched he has only allowed 6 hits and a single earned run.

Zoning out a larger sample size, Kaprielian has only given up 6 earned runs in his last 28 innings pitched with three of those runs being in the same outing.

The Angels will also be without Mike Trout, who is dealing with a rib injury. This takes the best player on the field away from a first inning at-bat. Both teams rank 25th or lower in runs per game and hits per game, giving this play some serious edge.

The Angels have only scored in the first inning twice in their last eight games. The A’s have only done it once in their last 23 games.

Yes, you read that right. Throw this play in tonight and let’s sit back and watch the bankroll grow. Let’s roll!
