Johnson is 2-4 with a 6.10 ERA and a 1.43 WHIP across 38.1 innings. He has surrendered 39 hits and 10 home runs while striking out 30 batters against 16 walks. Johnson will need to avoid free passes and limit hard contact to give Los Angeles a chance.

Los Angeles Angels vs. San Francisco Giants Game Pick

  • San Francisco Giants

San Francisco has struggled over the past week, but the Giants hold the clear advantage on the mound with Robbie Ray facing Ryan Johnson. Ray has delivered quality outings throughout the season, while Johnson has allowed too many home runs and carries a much higher ERA. Combined with San Francisco's edge in team batting average and the production from Luis Arraez, Rafael Devers, Casey Schmitt, and Jung Hoo Lee, the Giants will end their losing streak with a home victory.

Los Angeles Angels vs. San Francisco Giants Over/Under Pick

  • Under

Ray has consistently limited opposing offenses, and Los Angeles has scored only five total runs over its last three games. San Francisco has also struggled to generate offense during its five-game losing streak despite solid season-long hitting numbers. With one proven starter on the mound and two clubs that have been inconsistent at the plate recently, a lower-scoring game is the play in this matchup.
