Expert Betting Tips
In this matchup between MacKenzie Gore and Cristian Javier, the Houston Astros have a distinct advantage due to the fact that they are not only the superior club but also difficult to wager against when playing at home. Also, since April 26, the Nationals are winless while Gore is on the mound, whereas Javier has led the Astros to a 10-3 record when he has pitched for them this season. Hence, I expect the Houston Astros to win here easily.
