A’s Favorites Over Astros
Scott Kazmire will be facing off against the team that traded him back in July, as he takes the mound for the Houston Astros as they take on the Oakland Athletics.
The A’s are the favorites with a -110 moneyline. The total for the game is set at 7 runs with the OVER having a -120 moneyline.
Kazmir is 1-4 in his last six decisions, though he and the Astros’ bullpen have only allowed 2.5 runs per game over their last four games. Kazmire has a 2.50 ERA. Kazmire, a lefty, may also have an edge as the A’s have struggled against lefties all season.
Sonny Gray will take the moun for the A’s. He has a 2.36 ERA and is 12-7. He is winless in his last four games and will be looking for a victory tonight to help dig out of the slump he is in.
The last game in this series saw 19 runs go up on the board causing many bettors to lean toward the OVER.
The game starts at 10:05 p.m. ET.
