Astros vs. Indians Pick
Will the Houston Astros manage to snap the win streak of the Cleveland Indians when they meet today at 7:10PM ET?
The Astros have Mike Fiers on the mound to face Mike Clevinger of the Indians. According to oddsmakers at BetDSI, Cleveland is favored at home. The Indians are getting a money line of -120 to win, while the Astros are getting a money line of +110. The over/under total for the contest has been set at 8.5 runs.
Cleveland is 79-56 overall, 45-23 at home and 67-58-10 with the over. Houston is 72-64 overall, 33-35 on the road and 66-62-8 with the under. These two have met three times this season, with Houston getting wins in two of the three meetings. These two have pushed or hit the under in eight of their last 10 encounters.

Cleveland comes in riding a six-game winning streak, beating the Twins and Marlins at home. The Astros have won seven of their last 10 and they send Fiers to the mound, who has been on a nice hot streak of his own. He has allowed just five earned runs in his last three outings and the Astros have won all three of those games. Clevinger has struggled, posting a 5.30 ERA for the season over five starts. Cleveland is hot, but is winning close games. I don’t see Clevinger being able to hold down Houston and Fiers should keep Clevealnd from having much success at the plate.
