ASTROS VS YANKEES PREDICTION

The Yankees and Astros haven’t faced each other since 2019 in the playoffs when Houston took the series to go on to lose the World Series against the Nationals. This is a series the Yankees have been looking forward to for a while and the Yankees bats are starting to come alive just in time blasting in 18 runs in the last 3 games. Greinke has been pitching well so far this season but he is due to regress at any time. The Yankees have a career .258 team batting averaging facing Greinke with 5 players hitting over .290. Take the Yankees in this one but keep an eye on the weather as that is one of the biggest factors on totals. 

The Bookie:         Yankees -115 / Over 8.5 -110 (Listed Pitchers)
