Angels vs Astros Prediction

Neither the Angels nor Astros care about this game now that they’re out of the playoff race. Throw in care free ball and two struggling pitchers, and we should see some offense. McCullers has a 6.71 ERA and 1.85 WHIP on the season, and he’s allowed 11 hits and 5 earned runs in his last 8 innings. Aldegheri has just 9 innings under his belt and has allowed 13 hits and 8 runs in those frames while walking 7. Expect some offense. Forget the side and give me the over.
