Angels vs Astros Prediction

This is an underrated pitching matchup as both Teng and Urena have been solid this season through a combined 97.1 innings. The problem is I don’t trust the Angels as a team and continue to blindly fade them. The Astros have played their best ball over the last few weeks and have put themselves back in the thick of the AL West race. I have no use for the Angels, a team that’s currently in the bottom five in terms of money earned this season. Give me the Astros and a reasonable price.
