Houston at Texas

The Astros pulled off a real shocker yesterday, winning as a +260 dog. With the series on the line and that loss fresh for Texas, I put the odds of a repeat very, very low. Houston is just 15-24 on the road this season, 14-25 in division games, and 7-18 in day games. In daytime games, this offense has produced only 3.2 runs per game. Since last season, the Astros are just 38-90 vs. winning teams. And as an underdog of +175 or more over that span, they are 27-88 including 11-43 on the road. Texas is 24-13 in-division, averaging 5.1 runs per game. Take Texas to bounce back.
