MLB Betting Trends
Cincinnati
The Reds are just 15-40 in their last 55 interleague road games and 11-5 in their last 16 games following a loss.
Los Angeles
The Angels are 22-8 in their last 30 interleague home games and 8-3 in Heaney’s last 11 home starts.
Prediction:
Mahle has given up multiple runs in five straight starts and his road numbers are pretty poor, as he has a 4.83 ERA away from home. Heaney hasn’t been much better, allowing five runs in two of his last three starts. He hasn’t been able to get deep into games either. The Reds have a bullpen that can help Mahle if he struggles. Heaney can’t say the same thing. I think the Cincinnati pen will be able to help the Reds get the upset today.
MLB Prediction: Cincinnati Reds +145
