#920 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Houston Astros -1.5 -135 on Run Line over Texas Rangers, Sunday at 2:35 PM ET - The Astros are 11-3 against the Rangers this season. Zack Greinke is 3-0 last 3 starts versus Texas and those victories were all by multiple-run margins - an aggregate score of 21 to 9. Greinke is 6-0 with a 2.34 ERA on the road this season. Taylor Hearn starts for the Rangers here and is 0-2 with a 5.78 ERA in his 3 home starts on the year. Texas is on an 11-35 run and 30 of those 35 losses have been by more than 1 run! You can see why we have no hesitation in laying the 1.5 runs here to get a reasonable price on an Astros team that should dominate here. Greinke in line for a great start and the Rangers are 22-56 against right-handed starters this season. Houston is a fantastic 36-16 in divisional games this season and still working hard to hold off Oakland at the top of the AL West. That said, Greinke and the Astros are unlikely to let Hearn and the Rangers stand in the way on Sunday afternoon. The Astros have won 7 of 9 games and 18 of their last 20 victories have been by 2+ runs. Houston is set up well for a big road rout win here and Greinke should dominate. Adding to the value here is the fact that our play on team is available in a reasonable -135 price range on the run line. Take Houston Astros -1.5 on the run line.
