Texas Rangers vs Houston Astros Predictions 9/6/2022

Just a short while ago, Justin Verlander appeared to be a lock to win another Cy Young Award. However, Verlander sustained an injury, and now Framber Valdez may have a chance to win instead.

Left-handed pitcher Valdez has a record of 14-4 and a 2.63 ERA in 25 starts this year. In 164 innings pitched, he walked 56 times and struck out 150 times.

In the American League, Valdez sits sixth in ERA and second in victories, trailing only Verlander (16).

This year, the Astros‘ pitching was outstanding. They are second in baseball with a team ERA of 3.00. The best ERA in baseball is held by the bullpen, which boasts a 2.87 mark.

They are eleventh in the league in offensive production with 4.50 runs scored per game. They are fifth in home runs, fifth in team batting average, and seventh in slugging percentage.

Recently, Alex Bregman was hitting like crazy. Kyle Tucker is hitting.265 with 20 home runs and 78 RBI. 252 with 86 RBI and 23 home homers. Yordan Alvarez, who bats.294 and has 82 RBI, is the team’s top player.

The Houston Astros are 6-1 SU in their previous 7 matches.
The total went OVER in 5 of Houston’s last 7 matches against the Texas Rangers.
Houston is 9-2 SU in their last 11 matches at home.

Texas Rangers vs Houston Astros. The MLB pick for this game is the Houston Astros. With veteran ace Martin Perez taking the mound against youngster Hunter Brown on Monday night, Texas had its greatest chance to win a game in this series.

Tuesday, when Framber Valdez pitches for the Astros, makes the assignment much more difficult. In 15 innings thrown over his previous two starts versus the Rangers, Valdez allowed only 2 runs overall.

Valdez’s ERA across his previous four outings is 1.55. Otto is a capable pitcher, but he must work hard to limit the Astros to just a few runs because, with Valdez on the mound, that is all they will need to prevail.

Here, pick the Astros on the money line. The Houston Astros will win to a predicted score of 7-3.
