Just how embarrassed are the Astros?

Astros laying big chalk this season has been money especially last 2 months...Prior to yesterdays loss...They were 13-0 last 13 games laying -200 or greater..CWS can't hit righties.....Astros or no play....IMO

I'm just glad that I didn't go with a usual move of mine, which was backing a -300 plus money line team at PLUS odds LIVE when they're down early. As for yesterday when the Orioles took the lead at the bottom of the 5th with a score of 4-3 Baltimore, the odds for Houston when the inning finished was Houston +210. I feel that usually, this is a good bet because of the "trash can innings" of the 6th, 7th and 8th where the original -300 plus team will score runs off of the bull pen, maintain and hold the lead for the win. As for this case yesterday, the Astros DID take the lead at the top of the 9th with an impressive 2 run lead but the carpet got pulled right under them when the Orioles won it in the bottom of the 9th.

As for the OP's question about the betting angle for today, I really don't know. All I know is that I went with the Houston F5 -0.5 runline at -185. When I can take my money and run, I will. Houston should be able to score some early runs and maintain the lead in the F5.. 

What number and odds did you get it at? On my book, it's being offered at:

Houston team total

O6.5 (+105)

U6.5 (-125)

That number is just "ugh.." A perfect number by the odds makers that will create action on BOTH sides. Not too high and not too low.. 

Many team total Houston at 5.5 -128 and in thinking trap.  Idk 

The game most likely will be rained out 

Astros have one of the top 10 starting pitching staffs in major league history since 1940 or so.

The Astros are currently the best team in baseball.
