The Houston Astros have been a playoff fixture for several years, but things look a bit different this season. Houston opened the season at home by getting swept by the New York Yankees, and they are now 6-13 on the season. Atlanta has depth in their lineup as well as their starting pitching, and look to be the team to beat. The Braves have taken the first two games in this series, but the Braves have tended to play as a "fat cat" in Game 3 of a series after two straight wins allowing three or fewer runs. They are just 13-24 in this situation the last three years. Make the play on Houston.
