Yankees vs. Astros Series Preview

The Houston Astros enter this series 9-7 in the last 16 versus the New York Yankees.  The Astros have the second shortest odds of winning the 2021 World Series at 6-1 for a payout of $600 on every $100 bet.  The Yankees, meanwhile, have stumbled throughout the first half of the season and were just barely clinging to the .500 mark.

When to Consider a Bet in This Series

Saturday Outlook (July 11)

Jameson Taillon NYY (3-4, 5.43) has won his last two starts but surrendered five runs in 5 1/3 innings Tuesday in a win over the Angels.

Zack Greinke HOU (8-2, 3.64) matched a season-high with eight strikeouts over 7 2/3 innings on Sunday in a no-decision against the Indians.  He also did not factor into the decision in his previous start.

If you can get Houston here at under -190, it might be good to pull the trigger on the Astros this day.
