Wade Miley is 9-4 with a 3.06 ERA this season and 4-1 with a 1.92 ERA at home. In July, he is 3-0 with a 2.03 ERA. Yusei Kikuchi is 4-7 with a 5.21 ERA this season but he is 1-6 with a 7.21 ERA in his last 11 starts. In his one outing against the Astros, he gave up five runs in five innings. The Astros have the best OPS in the league against lefties while the Mariners are ranked 11th in OPS against lefties. The Astros are 9-1 against the Mariners this season and 15-7 when Miley starts. -150 is a reasonable run line.
Even at this price, the Astros are solid value. The Mariners have lost nine of Yusei Kikuchi's last 11 starts, and Houston bashes lefties, with a MLB-leading .877 OPS. In addition, Astros starter Wade Miley (9-4, 3.06 ERA) is having a sneaky good season. Lay it.
