Houston has won the first two games of this series by a combined 17-2. I love the Astros to get the sweep today behind Framber Valdez, but I'll play them on the runline at -115 rather than lay big juice. Valdez is 7-2 with a 2.33 ERA over his last 12 starts. The Angels have mustered 22 runs over their last eight games and trot out Jose Suarez, who has a 1.64 WHIP.
With Astros starter Framber Valdez on one side and Jose Suarez on the other for L.A., this should be a tight one. Valdez pitched well in his last start against the Mets but had allowed at least two runs in four straight before that. Suarez has allowed eight runs over his past four starts. The Angels have won three of the eight meetings this season, and they are 4-4 in Suarez starts this season. The SportsLine Projection Model has the Angels covering in 64 percent of its simulations.
