Houston at Cincinnati

Premium Pick

Houston finally gets to avenge a three-game sweep by the Reds in June when the Astros weren't playing nearly as well as they have the past couple months. Houston currently is on a five-game win streak while getting tremendous pitching as it has allowed a total of only nine runs in that span. The Astros come off a four-game sweep of Kansas City and they'll have Justin Verlander on the mound today for his third start since coming off the injury list. The Reds have lost five straight interleague home games against teams with winning records and they are 0-5 overall following a win. Cincinnati is 33-39 at home and Julian Aguiar gave up six runs on 10 hits in four innings his last start for the Reds. Take the Astros as a Max Play.
