Oakland just finished a dismal 1-6 homestand and now has to head out on the road. Starter Cole Irvin (8.31 ERA) had a terrible start and last season had a double-digit ERA. Houston plays its home opener after a red-hot start offensively, scoring 46 runs in six games and going 5-1. The Astros are 30-6 when playing after a day off. Oakland suffered a four-game sweep to Houston last week at home, getting outscored 35-9, so back home field. Play Houston.
