Houston (-1 1/2 runs, Even) at WASHINGTON

By Anson Munson, Featured Handicapper

I am feeling a huge weekend in store!

It all starts this Friday night with another MLB 60 Dime Winner.

60 Dime
MLB Winner # 3 in a Row

Interleague 3-Run Romp

- Blue Jays (RL+105) 5-3 over Rockies -

There are 7 interleague games on the card for tonight, and this one will be an easy 3-runs or more winner.

If you are reading this text, the game has not started.

Season debut tonight for future Hall of Famer Justin Verlander as the veteran right-hander will take the hill in D.C. against the Washington Nationals.

Houston is a disappointing 7-13 on the year and was just swept at home against the Atlanta Braves to start the week.

Washington comes back home after winning 5 of 9 on their just-completed road trip to the West Coast that included wins in 2 of 3 off of the mighty L.A. Dodgers.

The Nationals certainly should be feeling good about things in this first game back home, but I have a feeling the Astros will not be willing accomplices in simply rolling over and absorbing a 4th straight loss.

Verlander likely won't go crazy deep in tonight's first start, but I think he will dominate while he is on the hill, and the Astros' offense will do enough against Mackenzie Gore to help end the losing skid at 3 in a row.

Take the Astros on the Run Line to open their weekend in D.C.
