Boston Red Sox vs Los Angeles Angels Prediction and Picks, September 9, 2026

The Boston Red Sox are hitting well lately, winning 7 of their last 10 games. They've been especially strong against left-handed pitchers, with a batting average much higher than average this season. On the other hand, the Los Angeles Angels have struggled, winning only 2 of their last 10, and they have not been hitting as well against lefties either. With both teams not scoring many runs lately and the combined total expected around 8.4, betting on under 9.5 seems smart. The biggest risk here is that the Angels could surprise, as both teams have been close in recent games. Still, the Red Sox's hitting form gives them a better chance of keeping the total down.

Boston Red Sox vs Los Angeles Angels: Jose Siri Under 0.5 Batter - Hits (+113)

The Boston Red Sox have been hitting really well lately, winning seven of their last ten games and showing strong numbers against left-handed pitchers. On the other hand, the Los Angeles Angels have been struggling, winning only two of their last ten. Jose Siri, who plays for the Angels, has not been making much noise with the bat, especially against lefties, with a lower average than his teammates. Betting on Jose Siri to get less than one hit feels like a solid choice. He averages about the same number of ground and air outs at Angel Stadium, which shows he's not consistently putting the ball in play. Plus, with the Red Sox's strong performance, there's a good chance he might not find many opportunities to hit.

Boston Red Sox vs Los Angeles Angels: Kyren Paris Under 0.5 Batter - Hits (-105)

Kyren Paris needs to get at least one hit for the bet to win tonight. The Boston Red Sox have been really strong against left-handed pitchers this season, and Paris has been struggling lately, not getting any hits in his last three games. This makes it tough for him to find success tonight, especially against a Red Sox team that has won seven of their last ten games. On the other side, the Los Angeles Angels have not been performing well, winning only two of their last ten. They also struggle against lefties, hitting below the league average. Given that Paris is also averaging less than one strikeout per game, there's a real chance he might not come through tonight. It's a close call, but the signs point to him staying under half a hit.

Boston Red Sox vs Los Angeles Angels: Denzer Guzman Under 0.5 Batter - Hits (+114)

Denzer Guzman has struggled to find hits lately, averaging just 0.6 runs over his last 10 games. The Boston Red Sox have been doing well against left-handed pitchers like Guzman, showing they can really hit hard. They've won 7 of their last 10 games, and their batting against lefties is much better than the league average. However, there is a risk here since both teams have been pretty close in their recent performances. The Los Angeles Angels have only won 2 of their last 10 games, which hints at their struggles at the plate. With Guzman's low average and the Red Sox's strong hitting, betting on him to get less than half a hit seems like a solid choice.
