The Astros are on the road vs the Yankees today. They have been very hot recently, limiting the opposition to 3 runs or less in 6 of 7 games, and winning all 6 of them. They are a solid road team, with good success vs right- handed pitching. Both of these offenses are in the top ten for the season. The Astros have surpassed the Yankees in recent games, and have their very good bullpen surging to a very low ERA recently.
Houston’s starter Lefty Framber Valdez (7-3, 2.78) has had a very solid season, but has given up 3, 3, and 2 runs in his last 3 games and seen his ERA climb somewhat in June to 3.50. He has pitched very well on the road.
Right-hander Jameson Taillon (8-1, 2.70) has been equally impressive, but like Valdez, has seen his ERA climb in June, after sandwiching shutouts around a pair of 3 and 4 run outings. Taillon has not pitched for as much length lately, with just 14+ innings in his last three games. This would not be significant considering the Yankees’ formidable bullpen, but New York has some injuries in the relief pitcher column, and the pen has not been as sharp in recent games.
The Yankees have been masterful at home, and formidable vs left handed pitching (18-7). This should be a tight well-pitched game today. The Yankees are a favorite, but I am going with the underdog today. The Astros recent offensive surge and much better bullpen will decide this one. Take the Astros to steal this one.
