Money Line: -102.00 Houston (Away)
Result: Win
Money Line: -102.00 Houston (Away)
Result: Win
The Astros are coming on having won 10 of their last 12 games. The Blue Jays are an underachieving seven games below .500, with an overrated offense, their two best relievers on the injured list and a bad manager.
I like Houston to bounce back here in a big way after losing by one run to Toronto on Tuesday.
Not only are the Astros the superior and hotter team, but they have a major pitching edge in a matchup of Ronel Blanco against lefty Yusei Kikuchi.
Blanco is having a big year with an 8-3 record and 2.49 ERA. He is 5-1 on the road with a 2.36 ERA. The Blue Jays faced Blanco the first time the teams met back at the beginning of April. Blanco threw a no-hitter against the Blue Jays in a 10-0 victory.
Kikuchi is in terrible form. He is 0-3 with a 10.64 ERA during his past three starts. The Astros have the sixth-highest batting average against southpaw pitchers.
