The Houston Astros are glad to have Collin McHugh back in the rotation. Since the start of the 2015 season Houston owns a terrific 44-28 mark when he takes he mound, where opponents hate been limited to 3.9 runs per game. He has now made enough starts where his velocity and location are up to speed and I expect him to have a big game here. Over the period he has made four starts vs. the A's and has won three of hem, and the Astro's staff has limited he A's to 2.25 runs per game, and have won on average by 3.5 runs a contest. The A's were limited to a single run last night, and will struggle to do much better in this one. Take Houston.
