Premium Pick

Another gravy train we'll ride for the third straight time. This one also features a weak road opponent. Houston, struggling to score runs all season, has exploded posting 6.6 per game over their past seven games on way to a 6-1 record. Milwaukee is 23-45 on the road and they are getting 3.9 runs per game over their last seven games. Andy Pettitte has found his game of late. He pitched 9 innings giving up one run vs. the Cubs on August 16th. He followed that up witha 0 run performance vs. the Reds on the 21st and a win at Pittsburgh after that. He's got a 2.21 ERA over those three games. Facing him is Doug Davis who has a winning record on the road but a 6.46 ERA. If Houston's offense continues as it has been playing (I see no reason for it to stop), Houston rolls here again. Fade the Brew Crew in their seventh consecutive road contest.
