The read

Listen here, the Astros are hosting the Athletics, and while neither team's pitcher is having a banner year, it's Houston that's got the edge. Jason Alexander's ERA (8.40) and WHIP (1.80) aren't exactly stellar, but he's facing off against Luis Severino who's carrying a 5.10 ERA and a 3-11 record.

Oakland's hitters are struggling too, with only Brent Rooker hitting above .275. Meanwhile, the Astros have a more robust lineup, led by Cam Smith (.265 AVG).

The combination of Houston's superior hitting and home field advantage leads me to believe they'll pull out a win tonight. Do you have the guts to ride with me on this one?
