Houston at Colorado

The Houston Astros have changed their fortunes from a year ago, a season where they lost 106 games. It certainly looks like they will improve upon that, but it hasn't been a product of success on the road. All the improvements have come at home where they are 16-10 and a tough team. However, when you put this young and inexperienced team on the road, the wins have been hard to come by at 6-17. They have been even worse recently at 1-8 in their last nine and the last four on this trip, all losses, show they have given up 27 runs. The Rockies have hit their way to wins in the first two in this series and are starting to get things going on the offensive end. The Astros are now 0-5 in Harrell's last five starts vs. a losing team and Houston, when facing a team that scored five or more in their last game, is 16-52. This has become a graveyard for the Astros as they have dropped their last five here. Play on Colorado.
