The Astros lost a close one to the Yankees on Thursday, but I like their chances to bounce back today. While Hunter Brown's season has been up and down this year, in his last two starts he has been very tough to score on. He has been solid on the road this season. The Yankees' right hander Severino has had a very tough year. Off one of his worst starts (9 runs/3.1 innings), the quality starts have been few and far between. The Astros are a good road team, hitting very well at the moment (.293/.846 OPS/L7 games). They have made some excellent additions at the deadline, while the Yankees really stood pat. The Yankees struggle vs right handers this year to the tune of just .226 BA and are giving up more runs than they are scoring (3.6/4.0 L7 games). It is hard to expect much of Severino. I'll take the Astros to even the series today.
