A ninth inning win with Seattle last night.
Tonight:
2X-- HOUSTON ASTROS (PK)
Houston has been average at home this season, but I like their chances tonight. Houston enters 4-4 YTD at Minute Maid Park, but gets the comfort of a pitcher they know very well as a team. Matt Morris has compiled a 6-8 mark with a 3.65 ERA in 20 career starts versus Houston. Not bad numbers, but the issue lies in his recent meetings with the stros. Morris is 0-5 with a 4.93 ERA in his last seven starts against the Astros. His counterpart, Tim Redding has struggled out of the gate this season-- home cooking should help him get on track. Redding is 2-2 with a 2.75 ERA in six career games against St. Louis. Redding should be able to keep the Stros in this one-- I like the home team.
Good Luck.
Thanks Capper!
