Los Angeles at Houston

The Angels over the last two seasons have been considered an under-achieving team, but after a season and a half of losing, there comes a time where that is what they are, a mediocre team. There are certainly signs that a Houston team that lost 213 games over the last two years, and started looking like they may do worse than that this year, has turned the corner. The Astros have gone 15-12 over their last 27 games, their best stretch in three years. The Angels are off a big series vs. the Tigers, and have shown to be a no show vs. bad teams. Los Angeles is an ugly 3-14 in their last 17 games vs. a team below .400. Houston is playing well, and also owns sour straight wins vs. the Angels. Play this one on Houston.
