The Yankees are 6-2 in Jameson Taillon's eight road starts this year, despite a 4.33 ERA for Taillon.

The Bronx Bombers bats have often been able to bail out the right-hander, but I don't think that'll happen here against Houston right-hander Christian Javier who is 4-3 with a 3.11 ERA at home on the season.

Taillon was charged with six runs on 10 hits over 5 2/3 innings when he faced Houston last month. Javier threw seven scoreless and hitless innings with 13 Ks against the Yankees last month.

8* PLAY ON HOUSTON ASTROS.
