(MLB) Houston vs. Boston,
Money Line: -129.00 Houston (Away)
Result: Loss
Astros starter Peacock who just secured himself a spot in the rotation is unlikely to give it up or get shelled here. Remember, Houston is one of the most well prepped teams in all of Baseball prior to a game with Nolan Ryan's imprinting all over this team. Peacock is no slouch as he is 13-2 with a 3 era this year and just held Boston to 2 hits in 5 innings in his last start en route to a 12-2 win. Boston's Doug Fister has been nothing short of highly questionable over his last few starts and with a potent Astros lineup that is just rolling right now, look for them to get more offense to get it done here and look for Peacock to settle down as the Astros end the series. The Astros are 7-1 in their last 8 games versus a team with a winning record and the Astros are 5-1 when facing a winning team with Peacock on the mound.
