The Houston Astros salvaged a game in Detroit, but overall this team has shown no improvement over the teams that lost over 100 games the last three seasons, and 111 last year. They lack experience, consistent pitching and hitting, and the win column is sure to be challenging to find once again this season, as they are off to an 11-24 start. Scott Feldman has not pitched since April 17th, so he will be on a pitch count here, opening the door to the underbelly of a suspect Astros bullpen. Baltimore should have their way here, as Houston is a pathetic 61-157 in their last 218 road games. Overall the Astros are 10-42 in their last 52 games vs. a team with a winning record. Make the play on Baltimore.
