Houston Astros MLB Prop Bets - Thursday 7/11/24

In late April, the Houston Astros were 12 games below .500 and trapped in the AL West Division basement. Houston has won eight of their last 11 games and now trail first place Seattle by just two games. The Astros feature one of the most potent lineups in baseball and offer plenty of prop cashing value.

Houston Astros Over 4.5 Runs 

Jose Altuve Over 1.5 Hits, Runs, and RBIs 

Yordan Alvarez Over 0.5 Home Runs 

Houston Astros

The Houston Astros currently rank seventh in OPS and 11th runs scored, so it might not take long for them to surge ahead of a weak hitting Seattle club. Houston has scored 64 runs over their last ten games and are averaging 4.76 runs per contest for the year. The Astros will feast against Miami rookie SP Roddery Munoz (1-3 5.48 ERA), who has walked an alarming 24 batters in 44 plus innings. 

Pick: Houston Astros Over 4.5 Runs 

Jose Altuve

Jose Altuve has been one of the best leadoff hitters in baseball over the last decade. The thirty-four year old Altuve leads the team with a .309 batting average and has scored 53 runs. Jose has collected ten hits in his last six games and has cashed this prop in 11 of his last 13 contests.

Pick: Jose Altuve Over 1.5 Hits, Runs, and RBIs 

Yordan Alvarez

Houston OF Yordan Alvarez has cemented himself as one of the top power hitters in the majors and has clubbed 101 home runs over the last three full seasons. Alvarez has been hot over the last few weeks and is tied for the club lead with 19 home runs. Yordan last homered on Wednesday, but is a good bet to do so against a rookie SP who has surrendered 15 long balls across 44 plus frames. 

Pick: Yordan Alvarez Over 0.5 Home Runs
