Astros vs Angels Prediction

The Angels have lost six of their last seven games, and Hendricks doesn’t provide much confidence. Hendricks has a 5.04 ERA and 1.32 WHIP on the season, and he’s allowed 28 hits and 17 runs in his last 23.2 innings. In 56.1 road innings, Hendricks has a 5.43 ERA and .253 allowed batting average. Hendricks hasn’t been the same since leaving the Cubs. The problem is Arrighetti has a 6.21 ERA and 1.52 WHIP on the season, and he’s allowed 25 hits and 14 runs in his last 19.1 innings. Two capable lineups and two pitchers in awful form. I expect some runs in this spot. Give me the over.
