Former AL Cy Young winner Dallas Keuchel (3.46 ERA) will get the start for Houston. Keuchel is down 1.93 units this year on a team record of 17-12; his Astros teammates have provided just 4.48 runs per game in support, a half-run less than their usual average. Three of Keuchel’s last five quality starts resulted in a “No Decision,” although Houston managed to win twice.
Rick Porcello (4.20 ERA) takes the mound for Boston, as he tries to add to his impressive 6.29 betting units and 16-7 record. Run support (5.88 per game) hasn’t been a problem for Porcello, driving the Over to a 16-11-2 record in his 29 starts thus far, including 7-3 at Fenway Park. However, current Astros have a combined .836 OPS off Porcello; OF George Springer is 4-for-9 with a home run and two doubles.
