Houston at Pittsburgh

The Houston Astros have been the worst team in baseball for most of the season. They stand at 47 games below .500, and Bret Myers isn't exactly having a good season with his ERA approaching the 5 mark. Also, as bad as Houston has been, they have been even worse with Myers toeing the rubber, winners of just six of his last 24 starts. The Pirates are getting a glimpse of Brad Lincoln in a starter’s role, after coming out of the pen most of the season. They like what they have seen as over his last three starts as Lincoln has delivered an impressive 2.50 ERA, and the light-hitting Stros could have another long night ahead of them. Houston is now 1-10 behind Myers after scoring 2 or less in their previous game, and overall they are 1-5 in their last six in Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh wins here.
