Houston Astros

Bet Rating: 1.16
Win Rate: .474
Run Margin: +0.1
Starting Pitcher (Ronel Blanco): ERA 2.43
Value: 62%

The Astros have faced significant challenges with their pitching rotation due to injuries. Despite this, Blanco has emerged as a reliable starter, recently flirting with a no-hitter and maintaining an impressive ERA. His recent form has been stellar, with a 0.69 ERA in his last two starts, positioning him as a critical factor in this game. The Astros’ recent home performance has been strong, and their betting value percentage suggests potential undervaluation by bookmakers.
