Houston Astros MLB Prop Bets - Tuesday 7/9/24

In late April, the Houston Astros were 12 games below .500 and trapped in the AL West Division basement. Houston has won six of their last ten 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 sixth in OPS and tenth runs scored, so it might not take long for them to surge ahead of a weak hitting Seattle club. Houston has scored 62 runs over their last ten games and are averaging 4.77 runs per contest for the year. The Astros will feast against Miami southpaw Trevor Rogers (1-9 4.91 ERA), who has walked 39 batters in 84 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 .301 batting average and 48 runs scored. Jose has raised his batting average ten points over the last two weeks and has cashed this prop in ten of his last 11 games.

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 has gone deep three times in his last six games and is a good bet to do it again on Tuesday.

Pick: Yordan Alvarez Over 0.5 Home Runs
