The two AL teams with 57 wins at the All-Star break, and two of MLB's three with 57 along with the Chicago Cubs start off the second half of the season Friday night in Anaheim (7:05, FSNW) with Angels ace John Lackey (6-2, 2.46 ERA) having the edge on recent returnee Clay Buchholz (2-4, 5.70 ERA), just back a week ago after two mnonths on the DL.

With all the Angels starters ready and rested and David Ortiz still out for the Red Sox, the homestanding Angels could have an edge here.
