Command Analysis

Houston Astros

USA

Houston Astros are trying to catch up to the leader of the American League, but they are far less consistent than the New York Yankees. Dusty Baker's men suffered two defeats in five latest matches, so now team is pretty far from the leader, but still retains the 2nd spot.

Series against the northerners started badly for the Houston team - they suffered an unexpected defeat in the first game (4:7), but managed to level score (4:1). Jose Urquidy will be the starting pitcher for the team in the upcoming match.

Seattle Mariners

USA

Seattle Mariners managed to raise the level of their performance during June, which affected positively on result for Scott Servais' team. In five previous matches the Mariners recorded three victories and also beat Houston at their field, which is not easy to do. The northerners are currently at the American League standings and they have a great opportunity to climb even higher. Logan Gilbert will be the starting pitcher in the upcoming game.

Tip and bets

1.95Handicap (-1) on Houston Astros

Astros are not looking so great at the start of June, but they are still a tough opponent. Northerners managed to surprise the opponent in the first match, but they were unable to extend their success in the second fixture.

We think that hosts will try to take control of the game since the first innings. Texas team is a bit more consistent than their opponents. The northerners are unlikely to keep up for long, so we are expecting a confident victory from the hosts.

Our prediction - Handicap (-1) on Houston Astros
