Houston Astros are the best team in baseball and when you see them getting plus money or are basically no juice to me it screams a sucker bet. Yes the Astros have a ton of injury's 3 key players have been bitten by the injury bug those 3 players are second basemen Jose Altuve short stop Carlos Correa and outfielder George Springer.
Houston comes into this game off a rare smack down at the hands of the Toronto Blue Jays who had won just 3 of their previous 10 games. Houston sends Wade Miley to the mound Wade is 6-3 with a 3.14 ERA over 80.1 innings pitched with 65 strike outs and 21 walks.

Wade Miley has always been and underrated pitcher but his numbers are hard to argue with he went 6 shutout innings last time out giving up just 6 hits and no earned runs. Problem with Wayne is he doesn't over power anyone and the run producers for the Astros are all out.
Red come in as probably the best under .500 team in baseball they are just 4 wins and 6 losses over their last 10 games but this team has the pitchers and the hitters to beat any team in the Major leagues. Reds send Cy Young contender Luis Castillo to the mound he is 6-1 on the year with a 2.20 ERA he has 96 strike outs and just 38 walks.
