The Astros get to play against the Yankees in this game here, but it will be a game that is going to be played after the game on Wednesday was postponed due to weather. The day off could actually be a benefit for both of the teams as the Astros had a chance to rest their starter in the game here, but it could be costly as well as the Astros are going to cool down from the hot play they had this series.
