Houston was a 5-4 loser at Boston on Sunday. They are 1-2 on their road trip and 6-4 in their last 10 games. Cleveland was on the wrong end of a 5-3 decision at Pittsburgh yesterday. They are 5-2 in their past 7 games (all on the road).

Free MLB Pick
Both of tonight’s starters Dallas Keuchel and Carlos Carrasco have strong historical stats against their opponents batters have solid historical numbers against tonight’s opponent, but we prefer Carrasco’s who’s has dominated the Astros team in in three lifetime starts against them allowing one run in 21 1/3 innings – striking out 30! We’d suggest that you keep an eye on the wind and if continues to blow out the over may also be a solid bet on this matchup.
