Houston at Pittsburgh

Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse,  it is looking like it has. These Astros lost 213 games over the past two seasons. Houston enters play today with an 11-31 record, which projects to 120 losses on the season. They are also just 7-25 after a reasonable 4-6 start to the season, so things have truly gotten even worse. The Pirates wore those shoes for two decades, and are now poised to be a contender at 25-17 on the season. A.J. Burnett had a good season a year ago for the Pirates, and has proved that there is still tread on the tires as he has pitched to a 2.73 ERA on the season. The Astros at 15-54 in their last 69 as a road dog, just don't offer much resistance most of the time. Play on Pittsburgh on the runline.
