White Sox starter Lucas Giolito has come on strong of late, with a 3-0 mark and 0.93 ERA in his previous there starts. He has a 2.57 ERA in two starts at Houston despite going 0-2 in those outings. Astros rookie Corbin Martin has give up four earned runs across his first two MLB starts while picking up a win and a no-decision. Look for the starting pitching to dictate a low-scoring game that stays Under the posted total Thursday.

On Wednesday, the White Sox and Astros played an explosive game that resulted in a 9-4 Chicago victory. The Astros bullpen threw 72 pitches in that game. That's a factor to consider since Thursday’s starter for the Astros is Corbin Martin, who is making his third professional start. However, the value in this game is on the Under. Grab it.

The Astros failed to come through last night, but I'll back them to bounce back against Lucas Giolito. He's 0-3 with a 7.31 ERA versus Houston. Lay it as the 'Stros win for the 13th time in 15 games.

Corbin Martin is 1-0 with a 3.86 through his first two starts in the Majors. Giolito is 5-1 with a 3.35 ERA this season including only two runs total in his last three starts. However, this Astros team is the best hitting team in the Majors and with a rested bullpen they shouldn’t have a problem winning this game. The Astros are 15-5 in May, 18-5 at home, and they have only lost back-to-back home games once all year. Lay the favorite at home.

Lucas Giolito has dominated the competition the last three games, allowing two runs over 19.1 innings. But the Astros are the top-hitting team in the league and they've actually gotten better as Jose Altuve heals on the IL. Houston wins over 70 percent of my simulations -- the money line on the home Astros should be closer to -250.
