Astros to Face the Angels Returning Ace Garrett Richards

With the Astros win Saturday night versus the Angels, it was a welcome sight with the ace of the Angels returning Sunday. Earlier in the week when I did my Astros in Fantasy Week 2 preview, I was unaware that Garrett Richards was returning so soon. I assumed that it would be Matt Shoemaker to face the Astros on Sunday. Is facing Richards going to be better for the Astros instead of facing Shoemaker?
