GL but I personally would go with Baltimore this game. But being that I have no money on these games I hope you win.

I'm a sucker for home dogs myself, and I wish you well, I hope you cash.
Having said that........
Hard to recommend Keuchel in this spot, being he's not a strikeout pitcher, relies on the defense to get outs, and has a penchant for giving up the long ball, and the Orioles are a dangerous long ball hitting team.
Adam Jones is a beast, Chris Davis is the best power hitter in the American League not named Miggy, and Wieters and Hardy can go deep at will.
McClouth has been raking all season at the top of the order, and Machado is solid in the two hole.
Freddie's last start against Washington was stellar, three hit shutout, and Garcia's WH/IP is an outstanding 1.09 in five starts.
I personally don't think the Astro's don't have enough sticks to get to Garcia.
I hope I'm wrong, I'll do everything I can to root home your wager from my sofa.
Win or lose, I hope you keep posting plays.

GL on the play but there are 3 teams I can never bet on and Astros are one of them with Miami and KC as well

It's weird, Houston is 5-11 against lefties but the hit em .275 Avg, .337 OBP. Keuchel does get run support and Baltimore has never seen him.
I stayed away from this one but there is no way I take Baltimore tonight.

thanks for the support
to me garcia is much like a cheap claiming horse.
he has the ability to run big every now and then but will usually regress. hes been on a bit of a streak but he still has no business being this size favorite over anyone.
plus i dont think this park suits baltimores bats. it also looks like houston is starting to sort through their mess a bit.
anyway i could go on.. but its just about gametime
