The Astros came through for us as a free pick against the runline on Friday. I like them to get the job done again in Saturday's matchup against Texas and Kyle Gibson.

While Gibson (6-2, 2.86 ERA) has been stellar at home, note his 4.06 ERA on the road and the fact that he has aööpwed 14 runs on 23 hits through 17 innings for an ugly 7.41 ERA in his last three starts combined.

Houston counters with Framber Valdez (5-2, 3.26 ERA) who is an undefeated 2-0 home at Minute Maid Park on the season.

I also think the total is set a bit too low for this contest, with seven of 10 head-to-head meetings between the two teams this season going over the total.

8* play on Houston Astros -1.5.
