Washington at Houston

The numbers over the last three years really couldn't be much uglier for the Houston Astros. They have lost 105+ games in each of the last three years, and their 9-18 record thus far this season isn't too encouraging. This team will have its spot eventually, and it will mostly likely happen at home. Jordan Zimmermann has not been the same pitcher in 2014 as we saw in 2013. Zimmermann has an ERA of 4.05 entering this contest, and owns just a single victory on the season. This has not been a place where he has met with success, as Zimmermann is 1-2 with a 4.67 ERA in three career starts at Houston. Washington continues to struggle on offense where they have scored 4 runs or fewer in 10 of their last 12 games, and are just 1-7 in their last eight games when following a win. Grab the home dog.
