Houston Astros DFS SPIN
Alex Bregman went 3-for-5 with two RBI as the Astros defeated the Red Sox 6-2. Bregman got the party started in Fenway when he took Red Sox starter Brayan Bello deep for the game’s first run. He would drive in another run in the fifth, giving the Astros a two-run lead at the time. On the season, the 29-year-old is hitting .265/.365/.447 with 22 homers and 89 RBI across 597 plate appearances.
Boston Red Sox DFS SPIN
Adam Duvall went 2-for-4 with a solo homer as the Red Sox lost to the Astros Tuesday night. When Duvall gets on a hot streak, he can singlehandedly bring you to the finish line in head-to-head leagues. The 34-year-old has hit homers in four straight games and seven in his last nine games. The Red Sox are clinging ever so slightly to playoff hopes, and he will continue to see playing time while he is red-hot at the dish.

Astros vs. Red Sox MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Give me the Astros. Crawford has been better than Valdez over their respective last three starts, but the Astros have posted a wRC+ of 155 over their last 10 games, which is the third-highest mark in baseball since August 19. While Boston’s offense has been nearly as good over its last 11 games (135 wRC+), I trust Houston’s bullpen more than Boston’s today at Fenway Park.
MLB BETTING PREDICTION: HOUSTON ASTROS -135
