Arizona Diamondbacks vs Los Angeles Angels Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 7/12/25, 5:40 PM  by Erik Gibbs in MLB Picks

The Arizona Diamondbacks and Los Angeles Angels continue their weekend series at Angel Stadium today, with both teams aiming to find some consistency in a season marked by inconsistency. The Angels edged out a 6-5 victory in the opener on Friday night, handing the Diamondbacks their third loss in four games. For Arizona, Saturday’s game represents a crucial opportunity to even the series and prevent further slippage in the National League Wild Card picture.

Despite recent setbacks, the Diamondbacks have been one of the more dangerous teams offensively in the National League. They currently rank fifth in total runs scored and third in both slugging percentage (.446) and home runs, showcasing a lineup that thrives on power hitting.

The Angels, meanwhile, come into Saturday’s game trying to do something they haven’t managed in quite some time: string together consecutive wins at home. Los Angeles has failed to record back-to-back home victories in their last eight games in Anaheim, a troubling trend for a team trying to claw its way out of the lower half of the AL West.

Offensively, the Angels have been underwhelming. They rank 17th in total runs and sport a team batting average of just .231. Unlike Arizona, they haven’t been able to mask pitching deficiencies with enough offensive firepower.
