The Los Angeles Angels and Houston Astros face off on Saturday in an MLB showdown at Minute Maid Park. On Friday it was the Astros that were able to secure the 4-3 victory. 

The Angels sit with a 60-78 record overall and they have lost two games in a row. The Angels have played a little better the last few weeks, but now the bats have gone cold again and the losses are here. The Angels offense has been a big issue and they are averaging only 3.82 runs per game which is 26th in the league. Mike Trout has hit 33 home runs and driven in 64 RBIs so far this season.

The Astros come into this game with an 89-49 record overall and they have won four of their last five games. The Astros have leaned on the pitching during the four wins. Overall this season the Astros are giving up 3.25 runs per game which is second best in the league. Yordan Alveraez is having a big season on offense and has hit 31 home runs and driven in 92 RBIs. 

On the mound for the Angels will be Shohei Ohtani and he sits with an 11-8 record and an ERAof 2.58. In his last start against the Houston Astros, he went eight innings giving up six hits and one run. 

On the mound for the Astros will be Jose Urquidy and he sits with a 13-5 record and an ERA of 3.51. In his last start against the Angels, he went seven innings giving up four hits and zero runs. 

The Angels are 6-0 in Ohtani’s last six starts on six days of rest. The under is 6-0 in the Astros last six home games. The over is 3-1-1 in the Angels last five games. The under is 6-0 in the Astros last six games against a right-handed starter. 

The Angels have won the last six starts for Ohtani on six days rest and he’s going to do it again. The Astros offense isn’t elite and they are going to really struggle to score in this game against Ohtani. It might not be the prettiest game, but the Angels are going to secure the victory here. 

The pick in this article is the opinion of the writer, not a PickDawgz site consensus.
