The Astros-Yankees betting line had New York as a +113 underdog starting
Dallas Keuchel starts for Houston going up against the Yankees and Masahiro Tanaka. It is technically the opener after Monday’s game got postponed due to weather.
ESPN.com says of Keuchel: “While Keuchel doesn't overpower hitters with his fastball, his sinker, which he threw over 50 percent of the time last year, is a ground ball machine, and his slider and changeup are both plus pitches that miss bats. Throw in elite command and you're left with an ace.”
Keuchel pitched 17 innings without surrendering a run this spring. That’s pretty sick.
This game, going off at 1 pm, was seeing good early action. It can be wagered on live in-play up to the end.
Nearly 70 percent of those betting this game were backing Houston. Keep in mind that it is sub-freezing in New York this day.
