Astros over Rangers- Here is another situation where it appears the stronger team is a strong underdog. Texas will start Colby Lewis (2-0, 3.12 REA) against a team he has defeated in nine of 10 career decisions with a 2.58 ERA. The factor to take into consideration here is that most of those win came before Houston turned things around. When you see that Houston's Lance McCullers (0-0, 9.64 ERA) who was 0-2 with a 12.79 ERA in two starts against the Rangers last year this 'line' appears askew. He is making only his second start of the season after a shoulder issue sat him down for five weeks. This time it's in-state revenge. Take HOUSTON!
