The Los Angeles Angels play the second game of a three-game interleague clash with the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night at Angel Stadium.
The Angels find themselves eight games out of a playoff spot after dropping their last six games. The Giants hold the top Wild Card spot in the National League and are just four games behind the Dodgers in the NL West.
Scott Alexander will be on the bump for the Giants, while the Angels will counter with Lucas Giolito.
Our algorithm has identified an edge on a C.J. Cron player prop at BetMGM. The prognostication expects Cron, whom the Angels acquired at the trade deadline, to stay hot offensively.

C.J. Cron Player Prop Prediction, Projection
The Angels have struggled, but it hasn't been due to acquiring Cron. The first baseman has a hit in six of his first eight games since joining the Angels.
The model indicates the likelihood of Cron tallying at least one RBI is higher than what the sportsbooks believe. BetMGM has set the total for over 0.5 RBI at +195, while the under is -275. That's the best price on the over in the market.
The model predicts Cron will have 0.7 RBI tonight, good enough for over a 13% betting edge on the over.
Do keep in mind that these algorithms work best when you wager with the same size unit for each individual bet.
Pick: C.J. Cron Over 0.5 RBI (+195)
