Houston Astros MLB Betting
The Houston Astros played with a World Series hangover for most of the first half of the season. The Astros offered no betting value and expensive prices with a highly popular and public brand. But as the 2023 season reached the All-Star break, Houston kicked into gear and played its best baseball. The Astros remain one of the most complete and dangerous teams in MLB. And they are in a heated race with the Texas Rangers for the American League West division lead.
Houston Astros MLB Betting Odds
The Houston Astros are 46-38 straight up and 41-41-2 over/under the total. Houston is 2nd in the American League West Division standings. In the AL West Division race, Houston is four games behind the Texas Rangers. Late on, the Astros have covered five out of their last seven games. The Astros have gone under the total in four of their previous ten matchups.
Houston has MLB metrics of 11th for runs production, 14th for OPS, and 13th for home runs. Additionally, Houston ranks 1st for earned run average, 8th for WHIP, 4th for quality starts, and 5th for bullpen efficiency. Also, Houston ranks 7th for the fewest errors committed.
So far in 2023, the Astros are -118 units on the moneyline and +149 units on the runline. Those numbers indicate a quality team that is too popular with the casual sector, forcing oddsmakers to charge overlay prices on Houston games.
Number one starter Framber Valdez is 7-6 with a 2.49 earned run average and 1.05 WHIP. Houston won three of his previous five starts. Closer Ryan Pressley is 2-2 with a 2.72 ERA, and 17 saves in 20 opportunities.
Designated hitter Yordan Alvarez powers the Houston lineup with 41 runs, 17 home runs, 55 batted in, and a .977 OPS.
