The Houston Astros are not getting much respect despite losing only one game in the playoffs, first sweeping Minnesota in two games before taking down Oakland in four games.
The Astros have scored 33 runs over their last four games, and here they'll get a look at Tampa Bay left-hander Blake Snell (4-2, 3.24 ERA) who has allowed four runs on seven hits and four walks in 10 2/3 innings in his two postseason starts this year. This will be Snell's first meeting with the Astros this season. Snell is 2-2 with a 4.73 ERA in six career starts against Houston.
The Astros counter with left-hander Framber Valdez (5-3, 3.57 ERA) who has conceded only two runs on seven hits and three walks over 12 innings in the postseason. This will be his first career start against the Rays.
The Rays are coming off a hard-fought series against the AL East rival NY Yankees, and I like the price we get on the Astros here in the opener of this best-of-seven ALCS.
10* play on Houston Astros.
