With Monday's postponement, the Phillies are starting lefty Ranger Suarez instead of righty Noah Syndergaard. That could work out well for Houston, which was 24 percent better than league average against left-handed pitching and No. 2 in OPS. On Oct. 4, at the end of the regular season, the Astros smacked three homers off Suarez, putting up six earned runs in three innings, in a 10-0 blowout. The extra day off also means Astros relievers Rafael Montero and Ryan Pressly are fresh after pitching in both games so far. While the Phils are 5-0 at home in the playoffs and will surely feed off their raucous crowd, I'll back the best team in baseball at this reasonable price.

The Astros were by far the best Under team in MLB this season, and Lance McCullers didn’t go Over the total until his 10th start, his last start against the Yankees in the ALCS. Phillies starter Ranger Suarez went Over the total in 19 of his 30 starts, and his home ERA (4.27) is a full run higher than his road ERA (3.20). The Astros lit Suarez up four weeks ago for six runs in a 10-0 win. Hot Phillies bats coupled with Suarez at home. Over is the top play.
