Houston at Arizona

The Houston Astros are off to a fast start as they are 6-3 and they send out one of their aces to the mound today in Pettitte. The Astros are 5-1 overall verse teams with a losing record, while the Diamondbacks are just 1-4 in their last 5 as favs and have lost the last 3 games that Webb has started. Although Pettite has struggled a bit this year in his first start, the fact remains that in a season riddled with injuries, he was still a stellar 18-10 and 2.58 era. Petitte has been traditionally a great bounce back pitcher and that is what we are riding today as he faces Webb and the Diamondbacks. Let's ride Petitte on the bounce back and the suprising Astros as they continue to find ways to win. If this game is to be decided by the bullpen as I beleive it will, the Stros' will clearly have the advantage to shut the door on the Dbacks tonight.
