Prediction
Both teams come in hot. The Astros are 7-3 over their last 10, while the Phillies are 8-2. I’ll go with the Phils in this one. They have played better competition of late and they are destroying left-handed pitching. Philly is hitting .415 against lefties over the last 10 games and they also have the hotter pitcher going. Suarez has a 1.29 ERA over this last three starts and a 0.98 road ERA this season. The Phillies have won four of the last six meetings with Houston and that includes a win over Valdez.
Pick: Phillies +127
