Los Angeles at Houston

When the Angels signed Shohei Otani, the vision was adding a quality starter. He has fallen short of that. His first seven starts resulted in a 6-1 record, but he has had a losing record since that point. The Houston Astros no longer have the big arms at the top of the rotation, but this team has a deep and powerful lineup that is always capable of keeping them in any contest. The Astros are at their best vs. righthanded pitching where they have produced 5.5 runs per game on the season. The Angels actually have performed better against lefthanders this season, so the matchup here is very favorable for the Astros. Make the play on Houston.
