Don't forget yesterday’s trend still applies today with the Astros 11-1 in their last 12 games vs. a right-handed starter. Houston was priced at +102 at some books.
We are a tad bit more nervous backing Houston today as they are 5-11 in the last 16 meetings in Cleveland with Trevor Bauer starting for the Indians and Lance McCullers too inconsistent early on in the season (disastrous outing prior to last start).
The Cubs are 12-3 in the last 16 meetings in Pittsburgh.
The Cubs are 9-1 in J. Lester’s last 10 road starts vs. a team with a losing record.
The Pirates, meanwhile, are just 2-9 in their last 11 when their opponent allows 2 runs or less in their previous game and 0-5 in their last 5 vs. National League Central.
At -153 the Cubs have value.
