Houston was embarrassed on the main stage yesterday, getting shut out by the Rangers. Today the Rangers put Jesse Chavez and his 3-4 record on the mound. He's opposed by Gerrit Cole who is 9-5 with a 3.09 ERA. Over his last eight starts, Cole has been en fuego, going 5-0 with a 1.76 ERA. Even after last night's loss, Houston is 26-8 in division games this season while Texas is under .500. Dating back to last season, the Stros are 61-25 when facing an AL team with an OBP of .330 or worse, as is the case here. Also over that span, when favored, Houston is 73-33 overall. Back the Astros to right the ship here.
