Los Angeles at Houston

The Los Angeles Angels have started poorly for the second straight season, but they certainly have the bigger upside than the Houston Astros. The 'Stros have lost 105+ games in their last two years, and entering at 8-24 here projects to them being even worse this season. Jordan Lyles was 7-20 in his first two seasons, did not make the roster to start the season, but is back out of need. Houston has had little bite as a dog where they are 30-91 in their last 121 games. They are also an unthinkable 8-32 behind Lyles, including 2-17 when he starts as a dog of +151 to +200. Play on the Angels.
