New York Yankees at Houston Astros Preview & Picks
New York Yankees at Houston Astros Preview & Picks
Houston are tipped to avenge last night's home defeat to New York.
The Astros made contact with the ball consistently in the season-opener and are backed to enjoy better success against Carlos Rodon, who struggled in 2023.
- New York pitcher Carlos Rodon went 3-8 with a 6.85 ERA in 2023
- Houston pitcher Cristian Javier went 10-5 with a 4.86 ERA in 2023
- The Over has cashed in 5 of the last 5 meetings
Head To Head
- New York Yankees lead the regular season series 1-0
- New York Yankees won 5-4 when the two teams last met on March 28
New York Yankees Form
New York will be determined to bounce back from a disappointing 2024 season – their worst since 1992.
The Yankees compiled an 82-80 record last year, and although it was a winning record it placed them just fifth in the American League East standings.
As a result, they missed out on playing postseason baseball for the first time since the 2016 campaign.
New York have now been handed a tough test to start the 2024 season as they bid to return to the playoffs.
The Yankees take on a Houston team who made it to the Championship Series last season, and they entered this series having gone 14-16 in the Spring League.
Houston Astros Form
Houston come into the 2024 season looking to challenge for the World Series crown, having fallen short last time around.
The Astros compiled a 90-72 record during the 2023 regular season, and that was enough to secure the West title via a head-to-head with Texas.
They took on Minnesota in the Division Series, and were able to bounce back from losing a home game as they won back-to-back road wins to take the series 3-1.
Houston could not overcome home defeats in the next round though, as they lost all four home meetings with Texas in a 4-1 American League Championship Series defeat.
Unsurprisingly the Astros are fancied by many to bounce back from that disappointment in 2024, and they enter the new season having put together a 13-14 record in the Spring League.
Verdict
Carlos Rodon had a rough year in 2023, so this could be a good opportunity for Houston to get in the win column after an opening-day loss.
