Colorado at Houston

August 27, 2025
img8:10 PM Eastern

The Colorado Rockies have had one of the worst seasons all-time. They enter this game at 38-94. They shockingly won the opener in this series vs. Houston, and did it on the road. I think that is a big wakeup call for the Astros as they are in a dog fight in the AL West where they lead the division by just 1.5 games over the Mariners. There is a lot working against the Rockies in this game. They are starting Chase Dollander tonight. The Rockies are 2-11 when he starts, and he has a 6.91 ERA. There is something else the Rockies are up against. They are at their worst when they face a lefthanded pitcher, where they are 5-30 on the season. I like Houston in this one.

1.5 units on Houston -280 (moneyline) (risk 1.5 to return 2.04)
