The New York Yankees look forward to continuing their success as they take on the LA Angels at home. The Yanks are fighting with the Orioles for the top spot in the AL East. While they seem to have improved their performance after the trade deadline, a few challenges remain ahead.
Taking on the Angels at home should be an easy task for the Bronx Bombers. Aaron Boone will send one of the best pitchers, Luis Gil, to pick up a win for his team. Gil's excellent performance this season has helped the Yankees win several games. The talented pitcher has a strong 3.20 ERA with an 11-5 record.
Things aren't falling into place for the Angels as they continue to struggle for the fourth spot in the AL West. Mike Trout is out for the rest of the season, while Anthony Rendon is expected to return sometime this week.

The Angels won their last series against the Mets but lost against the Rockies. Their inconsistency has proved them to be just another team below the average line. Ron Washington and his squad are not having a great season and the playoffs seem to be out of reach.
Davis Daniel will take the mound as their starter in Game 1. Daniel is a rookie with a 4-19 ERA and a 1-2 record. The offense and the bullpen will need to provide their best support to Daniel.

Yankees vs. Angels Prediction
This could be an easy win for the Bronx Bombers, with Gil on the mound and their hot-hitting streak. The Angels have a rookie going up against veteran and talented hitters. With a strong pitcher and a good bullpen to back them, the Yanks are expected to extend their winning streak.
The Angles need more power at the plate and get control over Gil if they want to win. With the odds against them, the Angles are the underdog here.
Prediction: New York Yankees: 2.5 (-300)
