Starting Lineup Astros
Jose Siri will leadoff for the #Astros tonight.
Starting Lineup Angels
Barría on the bump.
Valdez seeks to recover his best level and another victory
Left-handed pitcher Framber Valdez (10-5, 3.26 ERA) will start for the Houston Astros after a very difficult game on Sept. 10 against the Los Angeles Angels, where he earned an important victory with a final score of 10-5.
Valdez allowed five runs, four of them earned, six hits and five walks in five innings. Control has been a problem for Valdez at times, as he has walked five or more times in four of his 19 starts. Overall, he has walked 50 walks in 116 innings.
Tonight's game will also be Valdez's first since he cut his left index finger last week while he was throwing balls in the outfield during batting practice. This caused him to miss an opening, but Astros manager Dusty Baker is counting on Valdez being ready to show his best.
Valdez is 5-3 with a 4.56 ERA in 10 games in his career, with six starts, against the Los Angeles Angels.
Barría for his second win against Astros
Right-handed pitcher Jaime Barría (2-3, 4.93 ERA) will start for the Los Angeles Angels tonight after a no-decision in his last start, also against the Astros, when he allowed one run and four hits in four innings. .
In his career, Barría is 1-4 with a 4.47 ERA in 11 games, 10 starts, against the Houston Astros.
Los Angeles Angels Players to Watch
Pitcher and designated hitter Shohei Ohtani is in the running for the AL Most Valuable Player award, but he's not the only Los Angeles Angels player vying for these individual awards.
Second baseman David Fletcher, according to Angels manager Joe Maddon, should be sure to win a Gold Glove this season because of his individual performance.
Gold Glove Awards are voted on by managers and coaches, although they cannot vote for members of their own team. In addition, a percentage of the vote implies the SABR defensive index (SDI), which calculates a series of defensive metrics, it is something technical, but receiving this distinction is certainly something that any baseball player feels very proud.
Angels will play for honor
The Angels of the Angels are already eliminated from any aspiration to enter the playoffs, so they only compete for individual awards while they host the leading Astros of the AL West Division tonight.
They will seek to win and close in the best way this season.
Get Started!
Welcome VAVEL friends to this baseball game, a game with playoff implications that will surely amuse us.
