Tuesday's game was the kind of thing that makes you wonder if the baseball gods have specifically targeted Anaheim. TJ Rumfield hit a flyball to deep right-center, Jo Adell got to it, the ball clipped his glove, hit him in the head, and bounced over the wall for a home run. Willi Castro added a 3-run shot, Hunter Goodman went deep, and Tomoyuki Sugano gave the Rockies 5 innings of 2-run ball. Not a lot you can do as a manager after that one.

The injury sheet is a horror show on both sides — Kris Bryant still can't do baseball activities, Chase Dollander is shut down for 2-3 more weeks, Zach Neto is out of the lineup with a neck issue, Travis d'Arnaud has no timetable, and Nolan Schanuel is only just starting to run. The Angels are running out a lineup missing their shortstop, first baseman, catcher, and third baseman, and Lorenzen's 7.22 ERA is the guy they have to bail out.
The total sits at 8.5 with the over juiced to -115, which feels generous after games of 17 and 10 combined runs in this series. Take the Angels offense to finally show up against a guy with a sub-replacement ERA, take the Rockies bats to keep doing what they've been doing for two straight nights, and the under has to thread a real needle. The pick here is Colorado getting +1.5 — they've outscored the Angels 17-10 in this series and Lorenzen at least gives them length-by-pitch-count if not by quality.
