Houston had won five of six before losing its past two games against Seattle and the Yankees, who will start Carlos Rodon tonight. Rodon was clobbered for seven runs on eight hits in four innings against Baltimore on Thursday and Houston hitters have a .782 OPS in 80 at-bats against him. His team's record is 2-7 when he starts against opponents with losing records the past two years and his teams have lost 14 of his past 21 starts. Spencer Arrighetti got off to a rough start in the majors, but he has settled down and the Astros won his last outing 8-2 over Cleveland when he gave up two runs on four hits in 5 2/3 innings. Houston is getting good value in this matchup and take the Astros as a Max Play.
