The Tampa Bay Rays opened the ALCS with a 2-1 win. I think Game 2 will be another close one and my numbers say the best value is taking the Houston Astros on the runline.
Tampa Bay right-hander Charlie Morton (2-2, 4.74 ERA) is 4-6 with a 6.28 ERA in 11 starts against the Astros who counter with Lance McCullers Jr. (3-3, 3.93 ERA). This will be McCullers first career start against the Rays, which should give him an edge.
The Astros bats have been hot in the postseason, they outhit the Rays 9-6 in Sunday's contest. Expect a better payoff for the Astros today.
8* play on Houston Astros +1.5.
