Houston at Oakland

Houston's start to 2014 has taken a sharp turn south after delivering two wins in their opening series vs. the Yankees at home, as they have been just 3-11 in their 14 games since. The Astros' offense is starved for runs, as indicated by their first 17 games, showing that they have produced 3 or fewer runs in 12 of them. The Oakland offense is on fire right now having scored 25 runs over their last three games, including 11 in this series opener vs. Houston. Oakland is a stunning 100-46 in their last 146 as a favorite of any size, while Houston is a pathetic 57-151 in their last 208 as a road dog. This one looks easy and it will be, so make the play on Oakland.
