00:00Let's get down to Houston, Baltimore and Houston.
00:02Dean Kramer's on the mound.
00:03Christian Javier on the mound here for the Astros.
00:05963, 964, 210 start down at A-Town.
00:08A minus-122 favorite overnight, minus-125.
00:11So, I've now turned into mid-minus-140s as a favorite towards the Astros.
00:15And a total of eight and a half.
00:17Javier just making his way back into Major League Baseball.
00:19Kramer over on the other side.
00:21Not spectacular, but hasn't been bad here.
00:23What gives in Houston today for you, Tom?
00:25That's what I was going to say.
00:26It's like, Dean Kramer, like, he's not a good pitcher, but he's also, he hasn't been terrible.
00:33Now, you look back at some of his recent starts, like, sure, we're going to see a 4-3-5 earned run stretch.
00:38But we're also talking about games where he has, what is it, six games in a row with at least five strikeouts in every single game.
00:43He's getting deeper into games.
00:45He's not as bad as maybe we thought he was, but he's certainly not an elite pitcher.
00:50When it comes to the Astros lineup, Donnie, there's no one I love.
00:54Like, they're, listen, you got almost perfect game against Brandon Young, who has a 6-year array on Friday night.
01:00Nothing is off with this Astros lineup.
01:03So, for me, I would actually play the Orioles on the money line simply because we're in the plus money.
01:07And, frankly, if you gave me a Gunnar Henderson, Jackson Holiday on one side, plus Sanchez and maybe Walker on the other side,
01:14those are the hitters I would trust when it comes to some type of HRR for this game.
01:18But I have some weird feelings.
01:19I'm like, I almost want to stay away completely.
01:21Yeah, sometimes it gets on your nerves.
01:23Like, I went with the Astros a couple times in all parlay.
01:25Then they get, you know, again, a 3-0 game against a tomato can pitcher.
01:29And I didn't like the Astros yesterday, but you know this always happens, Tom.
01:32They can hit a beach ball the night before.
01:35What do they do the next day?
01:36Win and score five total runs in that game, beating the Orioles at this point.
01:40We'll see how it plays out today.
01:41But Dean Kramer's on the mound.
01:43He's one of those guys in the past that, yes, I've hammered this guy time and time again.
01:46Maybe you don't do that here.
01:47Maybe you don't trust it.
01:48Maybe it's an under down in H-town today.
01:50We'll certainly find out.
