The Under 7.5 looks like the best way to attack this matchup between Houston and St. Louis, with two quality arms set to take the mound in Framber Valdez and Sonny Gray. Both pitchers have been outstanding this season, with Valdez known for his ability to generate ground balls and work deep into games, while Gray has been the ace of the Cardinals' staff, consistently keeping hitters off balance. Neither offense has been explosive on a consistent basis, and with two veteran starters capable of controlling the tempo and limiting scoring opportunities, runs should be at a premium. Add in two reliable bullpens and a game likely to be played at a methodical pace, and this one has all the makings of a low-scoring battle that stays Under the total.
