Heading into Sunday’s American League matchup between Houston and Seattle, the Astros are the betting favorite to pick up the win. I recommend taking Houston to bounce back from yesterday’s loss, as even though Marco Gonzales has a decent ERA at 3.74, he comes into the game with a WHIP of 1.5. Look for the Astros bats to come back to life in a win over Seattle.
