If you want to have some fun betting strikeouts up the ladder, this matchup for Gavin Williams should provide plenty of opportunities. I'm going to bet at bat strikeouts live, but the full game over 8.5 is worth a half unit at least. I don't love that we have to be on the road and on regular rest here, but it will still be fun to watch Williams against this lineup. The sweeper is a 46% whiff rate pitch against righties, a pitch these hitters struggle with, plus he's actually been better vs. lefties for Ks and the Angels have pushed four into the lineup tonight, with two being 27% or worse K rates.
Cleveland's Gavin Williams hasn't been nearly good away with a 4.25 ERA in 12 starts. He has given up at least two earned runs in his past three overall and considering Williams isn't going that deep we should cash Over 2.5 if he allows two again because it probably will only be through five. Cleveland used its top three high-leverage relievers last night so we should get the flotsam at first tonight with Williams failing to last six full in four August outings. The model has the Halos at 3.8 runs. Three works. Hot night in Anaheim with winds blowing out about 10 mph.
This is a big number, but Gavin Williams has recorded double digit strikeouts in six of his last eight starts. The Angels are one of the most high-volume strikeout teams in baseball and haven't seen him this year. Great spot for another 10+ K.
