The Astros’ offense has been key for their first half of the season. Verlander will get the start for Houston, but I think it will be the Astros’ offense that leads the game. Flaherty will have his way through the Astros’ lineup twice through, but once the bullpen comes out, I expect the Astros to make a move and get some runs. The Astros offense is hitting .273 against the American League Central Division. They have also scored the 11th most runs in the league.

Take the Astros to get the win here on Saturday evening!
