The Houston Astros have to consider themselves lucky. If they were in any other division, they would probably be considerably worse than being in first place with the Mariners in the AL West, with a 57-52 record on the season. The Astros are 61-44-4 to the under on the season, but things like that tend to even out (The over is 5-2 in their last seven), and oddsmakers seem to have a better handle on this team.  The Rays traded away some good bats for pitching prospects before the deadline, so they have become weaker at the plate and stronger on the mound. I like the OVER in this one.
