Premium Pick

After years as a bottom feeder, the Houston Astros have risen with some strong talented arms, and aggressive young hitters. They opened some eyes early in the season, but where they playing over their heads? The last 18 games would certainly indicate that to be the case, as the Stros have been just 7-11. They have had no answers for Albert Pujols who has destroyed them over the years. He was at it once again last night with a pair of HRs to move his count to 48 against Houston for his career - more than any other player. Collin McHugh may be 7-3 but has a 5.04 ERA, and after holding opposing hitters to a collective .208 average last season, that has climbed to .283 this year. C.J. Wilson has regained his form when he was an ace for the Texas Rangers, allowing one run in his last 15 innings, recording the win in his last two. Houston is now 35-84 in their last 119 on the road vs. a team with a winning record. Make the play on LA.
