Rotation # 925
Padres/Astros Over 9 runs (win)
The Astros have not hit left-handers well, but much is due to the number of low at-bats against them. The good news is that Houston will go up against Kyle Hart, who doesn’t have significant numbers at the big-league level. The 32-year-old has spent much of his career in the minors. The Padres are playing well and will face a young pitcher, Ryan Gusto. Gusto has only 12 innings of big-league experience. The total is too low for two inexperienced pitchers who are not a threat to big-league hitters. Take the Over.
