Houston at Detroit

The Tigers' soft start had many puzzled, but they have since answered the bell by going 12-5 over their last 17 games. The Astros are losers of 213 games the last two seasons, and appear headed for a similar destiny this season. Houston isn't just losing games, they have for the most part been uncompetitive. Since the 2011 season the Astros have been a dog of +200 or more 34 time with just six wins, and stand at just 10-24 when getting +1.5. The odds here are the greatest in the period for the Astros, who have been a poor runline bet even as low as +200 on the moneyline. Look for Detroit to lay another pasting on this hapless team, and play Detroit on the runline.
