Houston Astros vs Los Angeles Angels. MLB’s pick for the 1st game of the doubleheader will be the Houston Astros -150. Bielak had a good start 3 games ago, where he allowed 1 earned run in 6 innings. It wasn’t the same in his last 2 starts where he allowed 10 earned runs in just 1.3 innings. Canning did great in his last start allowing only 1 earned run in 8 innings. Houston still has a better chance of winning this game since they are the better team overall, while the Angels are struggling this season. The Angels can’t be trusted with consistency which is why they are unlikely to get this 3rd straight win. The Astros know the Angels very well since they have a 14-5 record in their last 19 games against the Halos. Predicted to win us Houston at 6-2.
