However, the Astros have been playing quite a bit better which is a positive for the Astros as they have had quite a few struggles in the past against some of the teams they have been playing against. The Indians on the other hand have been playing poorly and while they are sitting atop the division they are definitely looking like a team that is severely lacking.

The Astros have a great pitching staff and that is going to make a huge difference in this game for the Astros. The Indians pitching staff overall is going to struggle in the game once the bullpen is reached and it will get touched up quite a bit as the Indians bullpen cost them this game. Final Score Prediction, Houston Astros win 4-3.
