Houston looks to bounce back from a 4-3 loss in 10 innings to the Blue Jays on Saturday, and the Astros still are 30 games over .500 and 14 1/2 games in first place. Toronto is last in the AL East and 25-32 on the road. Mike Fiers has had an up-and-down season, but his home ERA is 3.45. He also has a 2.85 ERA overall in day games. He faced the Blue Jays once this season and gave up three runs on five hits in six innings. Marcus Stroman gave up four runs on seven hits in seven innings his last time out against the White Sox on Tuesday, but in his previous four starts, Stroman issued 17 walks. Houston has scored 38 runs against Toronto the last three meetings, including a 16-7 win on Friday, and it's getting a decent price at home. Play the Astros.
