Houston at Las Vegas

The Houston Astros have been a road disaster this season. While they are 38-18 at home, they have struggled to a 23-31 mark on the road, despite their 5-4 win here last night. The A's started the season poorly, but have been much better since, especially when they have Sonny Gray on the mound. Gray owns an 11-4 record on the season pitching on a losing team, and has a WHIP of 0.98, and he has allowed 3 runs in 23 innings over his last three starts. Dallas Keuchel has been every bit as good as Gray, but the Astros have not only struggled miserably on the road, they are 2-9 in their last 11 roadies vs. a right hander. The A's have cashed five straight behind Gray as a dog, and certainly appears to be a live dog in this one. Make the play on Oakland.
