Athletics vs Houston Astros Prediction
I’m not excited to get behind Burrows, and his 5.66 ERA and 1.54 WHIP, but the Astros are playing their best ball of the season and have gone from being dead in the water to back in the AL West race. The Athletics have had success on the road, but they’ve had some hiccups lately overall, and Jump has just 12 innings under his belt. The jury is still out on the 23-year-old. I’m going to ride the hot hand and roll with the Astros at home.
