Wandy Rodriguez has always been considered to have plus stuff. Now, he has he finally matured and come of age on the mound, and harnessed that stuff. If his first three games are any indication, then the future looks bright. He has allowed just 11 hits with 18 Ks in his 19 innings so far this season, and pitching to a 1.89 ERA. He has allowed just four earned runs in three quality starts. Chad Billingsley has been an equally impressive 3-0 with a 2.84 ERA to start the season. He is a solid young pitcher, but has struggled on the road where the Dodgers were just 8-10 in his 18 road starts. Of his 16 wins a year ago, just six took place on the road. I will go with the Astros here as a live home dog.
