This is a 10* play on UNDER Houston-Oakland

After winning with the Under in this matchup on Friday, we made the mistake of going with the Over last night. Houston's lineup did its job, scoring five runs, but Justin Verlander proved to be too tough for the Oakland hitters as he held them to just one run (a solo HR) over eight innings. Let's then go back to the Under today. This, even though Khris Davis returned Saturday for Oakland. He's their best hitter, but not enough alone to overcome Gerritt Cole, who silenced the Cubs in his last start. He held the Cubbies to just two runs and three hits, also finishing with 12 strikeouts. Cole, a native Californian, is 10-3 all-time pitching in the Sunshine State (including 2-0 here). Let'ss not forget Houston is without several big names in its every day lineup too, such as Correa, Altuve and Springer. That'll make the job easier here for Oakland starter Chris Bassit, who already has a 2.81 career ERA vs. the Astros. A quick note on the A's hitters here. Their only three runs in this series have all come on solo home runs. Davis was 0 for 4 in his return yesterday. Play UNDER Houston-Oakland
