Houston at New York Yankees 8:05 ET
Yankees over Astros- I have said all season that the Yankees with all their big power hitters and 'free' swingers are not built for the playoffs, as good pitching beats good hitting. When it comes to 'good' pitching Houston has a major advantage with their future Hall of Fame aces Verlander and Cole. Lucky for New York tonight neither of those hurlers will be on the mound as both clubs are going to their Game 1 starters. That gives the Yankees the edge here and they take advantage with Tanaka over Greinke. The deeper these teams go into their pitching staff the better opportunity for the Yankees hitters and their stronger bullpen will prevail. Take NEW YORK!
