Pick

I’m backing the Astros here. Toronto got the better of the Astros on Tuesday, but I’m not trusting Jose Berrios on the road as he has really struggled away from Toronto going back to last season. Houston has been inconsistent to put it nicely, but I think the ‘Stros tee off on Berrios here and get some revenge on Wednesday. Give me Houston.
