The Astros are wishing they could smuggle the Angels into Minute Maid Park as the opponents the rest of the season and playoffs. That's because of Six straight wins over the Halos since last Friday, all by two runs or more! More of the same on Saturday for the Astros in a 10-4 thumping. Griffin Canning hopes to stop the bleeding for the Angels on Sunday but he's not facing the White Sox as he did last Tuesday when spinning six shutout innings. He's also now on the road, which has been bad news for him this season (we'll say...0-10 with a 5.93 ERA!). The Halos are also getting dangerously close to setting a franchise high for losses, currently 95, set in 1968 & '80 (the current edition sits 62-93 with seven games to go). Meanwhile the Astros are closing in on the AL West crown and more often than not, Spencer Arrighetti (2.42 ERA last five starts) has been good enough to back, at least when he has a few runs to work with 9which he hasn't in his last handful of starts).
