Los Angeles Angels vs Houston Astros Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Edgar Jibran | in MLB Picks
The MLB AL West Division will offer such an interesting second game of the series between Houston Astros and Los Angeles Angels to be disputed next Friday, September 20th at 06:10 pm Central Time. These teams had a radically opposite performance during the current season, so it isn’t surprising at all to have Houston as the big favorite to win the series.
When looking deeper at Houston Astros’ performance, they’re currently leading the AL West Division with an 82W-70L record, keeping the gap of 5.0 games above Seattle Mariners. Despite those great numbers, they lost the series against San Diego Padres, in which they couldn’t score more than 4 runs. Also, it’s important to note that Jose Altuve was only able to score on the first game of that series.
On Los Angeles Angels’ case, this team is already thinking about the 2025 Spring Training schedule as they currently are at the bottom of the AL West Division. In this regard, the Angels are going through a big restructuring in their minor league system, and they most likely will lose Taylor Ward for the next season, who is the most valuable player of this team with 71 runs and 24 home runs throughout the season.
