In a battle of lefty starters, I want emerging star Framber Valdez going for me at home against the Angels' Patrick Sandoval.
Sandoval was bad last season. He's bad again this season with a 5.40 ERA. Sandoval has yielded at least one homer during each of his four starts this season. 
The Astros have several big hitters out, but got back Michael Brantley on Sunday. The Astros are 23-5 in their last 28 home games versus a lefty starter.
Valdez has been one of the bright spots for Houston allowing three earned runs in 20 2/3 innings during his last three starts. 
It's rarely wrong to fade the Angels on the road where they are 16-36 in their past 52 away matchups.
