Astros -136 vs Twins. Three key injuries for Minnesota tilt this in Houston's favor.

The God of Odds likes the Houston Astros on the moneyline at -136 and LowVig.ag is the place to hammer it.

The sharp money has spoken. This line opened at -126 and has steamed to -136, a clear signal that smart bettors are backing the Astros. And they're right to do so. Minnesota rolls into town missing three critical pieces: Walker Jenkins, Cory Lewis, and Matt Canterino are all out or doubtful. That's their starting center fielder and two pitchers, including a starter. Good luck winning in Houston with a depleted rotation and lineup.

The Astros may be 43-45 overall, but they've been heating up lately. Winners of 6 of their last 10, including a 5-1 stretch before a recent hiccup. At home, they're 21-22, but the pitching has stabilized with a 4.73 ERA that's better than their season numbers suggest. Meanwhile, the Twins are 41-46 and 19-23 on the road, with a 4.87 ERA that's been getting shelled. Their last 10 games show a 4-6 record with ugly losses mixed in.

Head to head, the Twins took 2 of 3 in May, but that was a different Minnesota team. Without Jenkins and with their rotation in shambles, the Astros have the clear advantage. Houston's offense averages 4.5 runs per game, and they should have no trouble getting to a Twins bullpen that's been overworked.

Get the best number at LowVig.ag at -136. Bovada is jacked up to -145, so don't overpay. Lock in the Astros at home against a banged-up opponent. This is a solid 3-star play in a high-variance sport. Take the value and move on.
