Stephen Nover's MLB Interleague Total of the Month
(MLB) Angels (LAA) vs. Diamondbacks (ARI),
Total: 9.00 | -107.00 Over
Result: Win
You can't have a single digit total here in a pitching matchup of lefties Jose Suarez against Jordan Montgomery.

Not only do the Angels and Diamondbacks have excellent offensive numbers against southpaws, but Suarez and Montgomery are terrible.

Suarez has a 6.54 ERA and 1.67 WHIP. Apparently the Angels are so desperate for starting pitching help that Suarez is going to make his first start of the season here. The Diamondbacks have the majors' second-highest batting average and fourth-best slugging percentage vs southpaws.

Montgomery has been a major free agent bust, regressing terribly this season. He has a 6.80 ERA and 1.73 WHIP. Montgomery has been mind blowing bad in his last two starts giving up 14 runs on 17 hits in six-plus innings against the Mets and Giants. Opponents are batting .323 against him.

The Angels are second in slugging percentage and fourth in batting average when going against lefty pitching.

Both bullpens are well par, too. The Angels have the third-highest bullpen ERA, while the Diamondbacks rank 23rd in bullpen ERA.
