Los Angeles Angels DFS SPIN
Randal Grichuk homered and struck out three times in his Angels debut Monday against the Braves. Grichuk’s first game with the Angels comes nine or 10 years later than anticipated, as the Halos’ 2009 first-round pick (one of two) was traded away to St. Louis for David Freese and Fernando Salas before he reached the majors. He’ll probably play pretty regularly for the Angels until Mike Trout returns. After that, he could do some sitting against righties.
Atlanta Braves DFS SPIN
Sam Hilliard (heel) will begin a minor league rehab assignment on Tuesday with Triple-A Gwinnett. Hilliard has been out since mid-July due to a right heel contusion. There’s a strong possibility he winds up remaining at Triple-A Gwinnett once his rehab assignment is complete.

Angels vs. Braves MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Sandoval is 6-7 on the year with a 4.13 ERA and has won three straight outings heading into play tonight. He was hammered, however, for five runs and eight hits over three innings in his lone start against the Braves, which occurred in July of last year. Strider, meanwhile, is 11-3 with a 3.73 ERA and will look to snap a three-start winless streak tonight. He has struck out 33 while walking only two in 18 1/ 3innings while compiling a 5.40 ERA and allowing five home runs over his last three starts. Given Atlanta’s incredible offense and Strider’s current form, I like the over tonight in Atlanta.
