Angels vs. Giants Prediction, Winner Payout, Over/Under – Sunday, July 26

Today’s pitching matchup will feature Angels SP Jose Soriano going up against Giants SP Carson Whisenhunt.

Soriano has been one of the few bright spots for Los Angeles, posting a 3.43 ERA, 24.8% strikeout rate, and 52.1% ground-ball rate through 21 starts. That said, the right-hander’s 4.05 SIERA and 4.38 xERA indicate his ERA may be due for some regression, and his 11.0% walk rate remains a concern, per FanGraphs.

Meanwhile, Whisenhunt has been called up from Triple-A to make Sunday’s start. The lefty has produced mediocre numbers across 82.1 innings in Triple-A this season, logging a 4.87 xFIP, 24.9% strikeout rate, and 10.5% walk rate.

This will be Whisenhunt's third MLB start of the season and the eighth of his career. The 25-year-old has yet to prove he is ready for the majors, posting a 5.63 SIERA, 14.9% K-rate, and 12.2% BB-rate across those outings.

Neither team has been imposing at the plate this season. In terms of team wRC+, San Francisco has been exactly league average (100), whereas Los Angeles has been slightly below that (97). The Giants rank 22nd in team xwOBA (.311), and the Angels are right behind them in 23rd (.310).
