This could be the last time for Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout to play together with a chance to lead the Los Angeles Angels back to the playoffs. Ohtani has made it clear he wants to play for a winner. He is going into his sixth and final season under contract with the Angels, who haven’t even had a winning season in that span.

Dusty Baker’s Astros are favored to repeat as division champs while seeking their fifth World Series in seven seasons.
