The Houston Astros should get a win tonight at home over the Oakland Athletics. Oakland has won 3 in a row but their road record is less than impressive at 12-25. Sean Manaea gets the nod for Oakland. Manaea has been average thus far, with a record of 6-4, an ERA of 4.05 and a 1.15 WHIP. The A’s have had issues at Minute Maid Park, with a record of 1-6 in their last 7, and they are 0-5 in Manea’s last 5 starts against the Astros. Mike Fiers gets the call for Houston and he has been throwing flames. Fiers is 2-0 over his last 3, with an ERA of just 0.89, a WHIP of 0.84, and Houston is 5-1 in his last 6 starts. The line seems a little fishy in this one, it should be higher, but all the numbers point to Houston.
Tonight’s Pick:
