The Astros are over the five hundred mark, but oddly the Astros are not playing as strong as what they have in the recent past. So this could be an issue for the Astros in the game here facing the Twins who have been playing a great game on the year so far. What else could be an issue is the fact the Astros are taking to the road in this game and that has really led to them struggling quite a bit on the year so far as they are 7-9. The Twins, though, have been able to get a total of 9 home wins and only dropped 4 home games.
