Our Los Angeles Angels vs Houston Astros Prediction
Neither team has been doing a good job at the plate lately. Over the last week, the Angels have hit .229 and the Astros .227. LA holds an edge in scoring, 29-25, but that’s with a 10-run game yesterday. So, since neither lineup is hitting well, I look at the pitching matchup. In this case, Houston has a distinct advantage. Lambert has done well on the road, while Detmers seems to struggle at home. Take the Astros to win outright.
