The Los Angeles Angels look to right the ship on Tuesday evening. After a strong start in 2022, the Angels have lost five straight games, though Los Angeles is emerging from an off day on Monday. The Angels will visit the New York Yankees for the first of three games at Yankee Stadium, and New York is playing well this season. The Yankees are 33-15 overall, even after losing the last two games.

Caesars Sportsbook lists the Yankees as -135 money line favorites, and first pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. ET.

Why you should back the Angels

The Angels are flying high on offense this season, headlined by Mike Trout. Trout is a nine-time All-Star and three-time American League MVP, and he is up to his old tricks in 2022. Trout has 13 home runs and 13 doubles before the end of May, and he has a .310 batting average to go along with a .411 on-base percentage and a robust .652 slugging percentage. With Trout, Shohei Ohtani and an improved supporting cast, the Angels can threaten any opposing pitching staff.

Los Angeles ranks in the top three of the AL in batting average (.251), on-base percentage (.322), slugging percentage (.426) and OPS (.748), with a top-tier mark with 235 runs scored. The Angels also have as many home runs (67) as the Yankees, and New York ranks below the American League average in doubles, triples, and strikeout avoidance in 2022. The Angels are also handing the ball to an impressive starting pitcher in Noah Syndergaard, who has a career 3.31 ERA and a 3.08 ERA this season.

Why you should back the Yankees

The Yankees have stellar metrics in creating runs and preventing runs. New York is in the top five of the American League with 220 runs scored, also ranking near the top of the league in home runs (67), walks (167), slugging percentage (.406), and OPS (.720) during the 2022 season. The Yankees are facing an Angels bullpen that has a 4.02 ERA, while New York's corps of relievers is outstanding. In fact, New York leads the American League in wins above replacement from relievers, and the Yankees bullpen has a 3.15 ERA with 9.46 strikeouts per nine innings and a 49.0 percent ground ball rate.

At the start of the day, the Yankees will send Jordan Montgomery to the mound, and the 29-year-old left-hander is enjoying success in 2022. Montgomery has a 3.30 ERA in nine starts this season, with only 1.6 walks per nine innings. He has not allowed more than three earned runs in any 2022 start, and left-handed hitters have a hideous .250 OPS against Montgomery this season.
