The Texas Rangers are where the Los Angeles Angels want to be and have been trying to get there for seemingly forever: the top of the American League West.
The Rangers have slugged their way to a 41-23 record and are five games ahead of the Houston Astros in the division. Their plus-149 run differential is the best in the Big Leagues, even better than the consensus top club in baseball, the Tampa Bay Rays.

The Texas Rangers are where the Los Angeles Angels want to be and have been trying to get there for seemingly forever: the top of the American League West.
The Rangers have slugged their way to a 41-23 record and are five games ahead of the Houston Astros in the division. Their plus-149 run differential is the best in the Big Leagues, even better than the consensus top club in baseball, the Tampa Bay Rays.
Those loud Rangers bats will keep making noise on Monday as the team digs in against Angels starter Tyler Anderson. He's still trying to earn his wings with his new team since coming over from the Dodgers in the offseason.

Angels vs Rangers odds Angels vs Rangers predictions
The Los Angeles Angels signed Tyler Anderson this offseason to help their seemingly never-ending struggles to find consistent starting pitching. But unfortunately, things haven’t worked out that way for the Halos’ southpaw.
Anderson earned his first career All-Star nod after pitching to a 3.10 expected ERA while limiting opponents to a .225 expected batting average in 2022. However, command issues are creating a problem for the left-hander in 2023.
His strikeout rate is way down, and opponents are hitting him much harder and more regularly. The lefty is pitching to a 5.05 xERA through 11 starts in 2023, and opponents are getting to him for a .270 xBA.
Now he now gets to face off against a Texas Rangers team that smacks around southpaws. The Rangers rank fifth in batting average and third in OPS and wRC+ when facing lefties.
Countering Anderson is Dane Dunning. The 28-year-old right-hander is sporting a sparkling 2.52 ERA, but the advanced numbers say some regression is coming.
Dunning’s xERA is more than two runs higher than his actual ERA, which sits at 4.70. He's also surrendering a .277 expected batting average to opponents while his strikeout rate is in the bottom 9% of MLB.
And while the Angels' lineup may not be as potent as the Rangers’ batting order, Los Angeles' offense is certainly doing its part. With a red-hot Shohei Ohtani leading the way, the Angels rank eighth in batting average, OPS, and wRC+, and they've hit the fourth most home runs when facing right-handed pitchers in 2023. Additionally, this game features two bullpens that rank 20th (Angels) and 24th (Rangers) in xFIP.
The Angels average 4.9 runs per game on the road against right-handed pitching while the Rangers average a stunning 7.17 at home against lefties. That all adds up to plenty of scoring. I’m betting we see some fireworks Monday as this game cruises Over the total. My best bet: Over 9.5 (-125 at bet365) Angels vs Rangers same-game parlay Over 9.5 Anderson Under 17.5 outs recorded Seager Over 1.5 total bases This same-game parlay comes with a theme, and it's picking on Anderson. He's struggling and will do his part to send this game Over the total, which is our starting point. He could also be in for a short outing.
Anderson is already averaging just under 5 1/3 innings per start in 2023. His outs-recorded prop is sitting at 17.5 for Monday’s matchup, a mark Anderson has gone under in seven of his 11 starts during 2023. That includes a five-inning performance against Texas on May 5, a start that featured plenty of walks.
