Astros No. 3 hitter Jose Altuve has enjoyed facing Athletics starter JP Sears, going 9 for 22 with five RBI against him. That includes five extra-base hits. And Altuve enters Tuesday's game hot, with seven RBI in his last six games and a solo homer Monday. He has four RBI in three games against the Athletics this season. I bet Altuve to drive in a run at plus money.

Isaac Paredes is off to a slow start against left-handed pitching—just 4-for-26—but 2 of those 4 hits have been home runs. He hit nearly .300 against lefties last season, so we expect some positive regression in those matchups. JP Sears has already allowed 15 home runs this season, with 13 of those coming against right-handed hitters. In 5 home starts this year, Sears has given up 9 home runs in just 24 innings pitched.
