Los Angeles Angels vs The Athletics Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 08/17/25

The Athletics have won the first 2 games of this series by scores of 10-3 and 7-2. The losses continue a rough stretch for the Angels, who are not playing well on the road right now. Since the all-star break, Los Angeles has won just 3 of its 11 road games. The Halos turn to right-hander Jose Soriano in hopes of turning things around. Soriano has made 4 straight home starts and hasn’t pitched on the road since July 20. The Athletics’ offense is great at home and seems to be in a groove so far in this series. Soriano could have his hands full.

Jeffrey Springs made it through just 3.2 innings in his last outing after giving up 4 runs on 7 hits to the Rays. Despite the rough outing, Springs has allowed 2 earned runs or fewer in 8 of his 13 starts since the start of June. He has been fairly consistent this season, and should be able to bounce back. The Athletics won 5 of Springs’ 6 starts in July but have dropped his first 2 starts in August. This could be a great time to find the win column again. Look for the Athletics to complete the sweep.
