Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: Houston Astros - RL

Matt Manning (0-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Framber Valdez (0-0, 0.00 ERA)

I like the Houston Astros to win this game against the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday. Valdez got the nod in the opener. Although they ended up losing that game, Valdez looked very strong, as he did throughout last season. He went toe to toe with last year's Cy Young runner up in Dylan Cease. Now, I don't exactly like playing against a team that has struggled as bad as the Tigers as I believe that they could get everything together real fast, but this is a complete mismatch from the hitting to the pitching. Manning is solid, but is nowhere near the level of Valdez. Manning allowed a .300 OBP to lefties last season and .320 the year prior. Houston's got some deadly lefties including Yordan Alvarez. Expect a destruction in this one.

T.M. Prediction: 7-1 Astros.

Line: -1.5, -130

Line Parameter: play until -1.5, -175..
