As if Houston has not seen enough of the name Harvey, ironically they will face Matt Harvey of the Mets today in the first of a twin bill. Houston has to have a lot on its mind. Houston has really been playing poorly and finished August at 11-17, a record that does not look like a team that was coasting through the season, but injuries have caught up to the potent lineup and pitching rotation. They acquired Justin Verlander, but he won't help today. Charlie Morton gets the ball for Houston, and he has done a good job this season. However, he is 0-3 in his career vs. the Mets, and went just 1-2 in August. This is a tough spot for Houston at an ultra-inflated price. Take the NY Mets in Game 1.
