MLB Odds: Guardians vs. Astros prediction, odds and pick
The Cleveland Guardians will play the Houston Astros on Tuesday night. The Guardians have been mediocre this season, going 18-20. Houston has been one of the best teams in MLB this year, with a 27-16 record.
The Guardians will face Houston starter Framber Valdez. The team has been on an offensive hot streak recently. They have scored six runs in two of their last three games. Their offense is better when playing on the road. The game is scheduled for 7:30 PM at Minute Maid Park.
The Houston Astros are 12-8 in their home park. Zach Plesac will start for Cleveland. He has a 4.42 ERA and a 1.34 WHIP at home and 5.74 at Progressive Field. The Astros hit right-handed pitchers better than left-handers.
Neither side of the spread is appealing, but the over is the best pick on the board. There is good reason to believe the Guardians can ding up Valdez and Plesac should get absolutely shelled.
