New York at Houston

Houston has been playing poor baseball throughout the month of August logging a worse than pedestrian 11-17 mark. The perspective of August showed that the 11 wins tied for second worse including AL teams. They have had other things on their mind after the devastation of Hurricane Harvey, and will be put to the test tonight. Peacock has pitched well all year, but even he could not avoid the August swoon, as he is 10-2 on the season, but just 1-1 in August with a 4.45 ERA. Houston stll has the best record in the AL, but over the last month the Mets have been their equal and the line here is drastically inflated. Make the play on the NY Mets in Game 2.
