This is a 10* ASSASSIN on the Houston Astros.

For the most part MLB handicapping boils down to the starting pitching and while Wei-Yin Chen has been the victim of poor run support this year, he's simply not on the same level as Dallas Keuchel right now. I look for the surging Astros to rally around their ace and to find a way to get the job done at the end of the night. Chen gave up three runs off six hits over six frames in a 3-0 loss to the Rays on Saturday and is now 1-4 with a 3.51 ERA. His counterpart Keuchel is 7-1 with a 1.76 ERA. Most recently Keuchel would strike out 11 in a complete game 3-0 shutout of the White Sox on Saturday. And Keuchel has been particularly dominant at home where he's 5-0 with a minuscule 1.05 ERA. I got down on this one the second the line came out and got -149 and it's since gone up, regardless I think the value play is definitely on Keuchel and the ASTROS.
