After sweeping the Rangers three games in Texas, the Astros return to Houston for this Game 6. That's bad news for the Astros.
The Astros were 39-42 at home during the regular season and are 1-3 at Minute Maid Park in the postseason.
I don't see ineffective Framber Valdez turning that around. Valdez had a 4.66 ERA after the All-Star break. He's been terrible in the playoffs giving up nine earned runs in two starts. He has a 7.30 ERA in his last seven home starts.
On the flip side is Texas starter Nathan Eovaldi. He's been excellent in the postseason with a 3-0 record and 2.29 ERA. This isn't a fluke. He's 7-3 with a 2.87 ERA in 14 playoff appearances, including nine starts.
Taking the Rangers at a plus price is a no-brainer.
