Los Angeles Angels vs Detroit Tigers Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 05/28/26

The Detroit Tigers and Los Angeles Angels will be wrapping up a three-game series on Thursday afternoon. They have split the first two games of the series thus far. The first two games played out quite differently, Game 1 was high-scoring, while Game 2 was a 4-0 shutout victory for the Tigers. In Game 3 the Angels will be sending Grayson Rodriguez to the mound for his third start of the season. He has been absolutely brutal in his first two. He has a 10.61 ERA in 9.1 innings pitched with a 2.14 WHIP. I expect the Tigers bats to be able to get to him despite their lack-lustre production this season. The Tigers are countering with veteran right-hander Jack Flaherty who also hasn’t been great. He has pitched to a 5.94 ERA in 47.0 innings this season. He has given up three home runs in his last two outings.

The Angels give up the fifth-most runs per game in the MLB, averaging 5.2. I expect a similar game to Game 1 of this series – high scoring. Give me the over in this one.
