The Red Sox are coming into this game with a 5-2 record this season as they are off to a strong start and currently sitting in 2nd in their division. They are coming off of a sweep of the A's in their last series and they have now won their last 4 straight games. Their offense has been good and consistent as they have scored at least 5 runs in 3 of their last 4 games, and their pitching has also been very good as they have shut out their opponent in 2 of their last 3 games. They are going up against an Angels team that is 4-2 this season and they have also won their last 4 straight games, sweeping the Marlins in their last series. Their offense has not been as consistent though as they have actually scored 4 runs or less in 4 of their 6 games this season. Kutter Crawford is starting for the Red Sox here and he is 0-0 with a 0.00 ERA this season. He is now in his 4th season in the MLB and he has been improving a lot as he has finished the season with a better ERA each year he has played in the league and he took a big step last season to improve more. He allowed no runs in his 1st start of the season and he was pitching well in Spring Training as he only allowing 8 earned runs in a little over 19 innings pitched. Griffin Canning is starting for the Angels in this game and he is 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA this season. He was not bad in Spring Training as he allowed 7 earned runs in a little under 17 innings pitched, but he got blown up in his 1st start of the season against the Orioles as he allowed 5 earned runs in 5 innings pitched. The Angels have not been hitting as well as the Red Sox have been to start the season so they will struggle to keep up in this game, especially since the pitching has been very good for the Red Sox recently as well. The Red Sox will win this game.
