To paraphrase Richard Nixon, the Angels don’t have Joe Maddon to kick around anymore. Maddon was fired as manager earlier this season. And after a brief spurt, Los Angeles reverted back to being a baseball betting odds loser. Indeed, the Angels have been exposed for a weak and top heavy roster. And that is not the fault of any manager. The Texas Rangers are falling back as well. The difference is that nobody had any expectations for Texas. The Rangers are rebuilding, and gamblers understand that. In comparison, Los Angeles sold fans a bill of goods again.
