Astros -1.5 (+150) vs Yankees
The Yankees and Astros have trended in very different directions lately. Houston has won 4 out of their last 5 games as part of a 12-6 record since the All Star break. They are also riding a high of no hitter thrown by Framber Valdez on the same day they re-acquired Justin Verlander. The Astros have had the Yankees' number specifically as they have won the last 7 consecutive head to head matchups against New York dating back to June of last year.
The feeling is not as euphoric in the Bronx. The Yankees have dropped 4 out of their last 6 games and are in last place in the AL East. While they are mathematically alive at just 3.5 games back of a wild card spot, they stood pat at the trade deadline which, if social media is any indication, did not go over well with the fanbase. They just cannot seem to break through and have another uphill battle against Houston.
