Shane’s Free Pick

Ohtani is going to lockdown here and that is going ot be the difference here. The Astros offense has been inconsistent, and it’s not going to get any better here. The Astros are going to finish with only three or four runs here, and that is going to be the difference as the Angels get the job done. Back the Angels on the money line.
