The Houston Astros and the Philadelphia Phillies will square off tonight at Citizens Bank Park. Brad Peacock gets the start for the Houston Astros and Philadelphia will counter with Vince Velasquez. Peacock has been on the money, with a record of 8-1, a 2.49 ERA, and the Astros are 5-0 in his last 5 road starts. Velasquez, not so good. He is 2-5, with an ERA of 5.14, and the Phillies are 2-8 in his last 10 home starts. Houston is 0-8 in their last 8 trips to Philadelphia which could explain the low number, but trends can be broken and Houston should get this one tonight.
Tonight’s Pick:
Houston Astros
