New York Yankees at Houston Astros Preview & Picks
Houston are tipped to win this blockbuster season-opening matchup.
The Astros are starting Framber Valdez for this one, and he has dominated against New York in recent times.
- Framber Valdez has a .164 batting average against New York
- Framber Valdez has 19 strikeouts in 73 at bats against the Yankees
- The Under has cashed in 5 of the last 6 meetings
Head To Head
- This is the first meeting between the two teams this season
New York Yankees Form
New York are looking to bounce back from a disappointing 2024 campaign that saw them compile their worst regular season record since 1992.
The Yankees went 82-80 last year, resulting in a fifth-place finish in the American League East standings.
More importantly, it meant they missed out on postseason baseball for the first time since the 2016 season and for only the fifth time since 1994.
New York face a tough ask on opening day as they face a Houston team that made it to the Championship Series last season.
The Yankees go into this matchup having put together a 14-16 record in the Spring League this year.
Houston Astros Form
Houston enter this campaign looking for another deep playoff run, having made it to the American League Championship Series in 2023.
The Astros went 90-72 during the regular season, winning the head-to-head with Texas to clinch the West title.
They were paired with Minnesota in the Division Series and overcame losing a home game by recording back-to-back road wins to claim the series, 3-1.
However, Houston were unable to overcome four home defeats in the American League Championship Series, as they lost a seven-game series with Texas.
The Astros will look to put that behind them in 2024 as they bid to win another World Series, and they enter the season having gone 13-14 in the Spring League.
Verdict
Framber Valdez tends to put up good numbers when he faces the Yankees, so we expect Houston to get off to a winning start.
