ANALYSIS: Larry jumped this total in the morning when it was still 7.5 and that looks great -- I decided to wait on whether Mike Trout would play, and he won't so now I'm also leaning Under and will probably buy up to 7.5 to avoid a possible push. Shohei Ohtani is on the mound and has allowed one earned run in his past five starts with a 28.2-inning scoreless streak. No Yordan Alvarez or Michael Brantley, remember, for Houston. The Astros' Cristian Javier has a 0.73 ERA in 12.1 innings this year vs. the Halos. Really tough to see either side scoring more than three runs unless it's against the bullpen. I DESERVE this total win after the abomination that was the bottom of the ninth in the Mariners-Nationals DH opener this afternoon. Still cleaning regurgitated Ramen noodle off my keyboard.
