The Houston Astros have been the kings of futility over the last two seasons, and their prospects for improvement this season are marginal. The Yankees revamped their everyday lineup, and should produce more runs. CC Sabathia had a bad year, and worked hard in the offseason and is coming off a very good spring. I expect him to have a bounce-back season, and should easily handle the light-hitting Astros. Robertson looks to be the real deal, facing the impossible task of replacing the legendary Mariano Rivera. The Yanks are 27-6 in CC Sabathia's last 33 starts vs. the AL West. Houston is just 17-50 in their last 67 vs. a left-handed starter, seals it. Play on the Yankees.
