The Angels are in a rut right now going 2-8 over their last 10. The run has dropped LAA to last in the AL West and things don’t look to get much easier with a doubleheader vs. Houston scheduled for Tuesday.
The Astos were swept over three games the past weekend in San Diego but bounced back nicely with an 11-4 win over the Angels in the series opener. Houston is now 7-3 over their lats 10.
Los Angeles Angels
There’s not much going on for the Angels right now as they have dropped to 11 GB from the A’s in a very good AL West division. The loss on Monday was the sixth in the last seven games for Joe Maddon’s team.
The Angels are a tough wager at +140 in this meeting considering they are just 4-12 on the road this season. LAA has scored 4+ runs in four of their last five, but they can’t get any pitching.
The Angels bullpen is stretched coming into this doubleheader especially after Patrick Sandoval allowed 5 ER in just 2.2 IP on Monday. Jose Suarez is looking for a long outing Tuesday, but he gave up 5 in 1.1 IP the last start.
Houston Astros
Houston is in a great spot for a couple wins on Tuesday in order to try and close the 3.5 game gap on Oakland in the West.
The Astros did run into a streaking Padres team over the weekend and were outscored 21-8. That offense turned around Monday though while belting out 11 hits mostly coming from the bottom of the order.
Cristian Javier will take the ball for Houston on Tuesday, following 6 IP of 1-hit ball in his last start. That outing was the 3rd time out of the last four starts when Javier has allowed 1ER or less.
