A 15-game MLB slate is scheduled for Tuesday and will include an interleague matchup between the Colorado Rockies and the Houston Astros. Let's take a look at the match statistics and predictions for this game between the Rockies and the Astros.
Houston has had a decent start to the season and is scheduled to start Mike Burrows in Game 2 of the series. Burrows enters this game with a record of 1-1, but has a shaky ERA of 5.91. In both of his starts, Burrows pitched at least 5.0 innings, but he has allowed a total of seven earned runs, which could lead to another poor start against a Colorado team that had a ton of success against Houston pitching in Game 1.
As for Colorado, they cruised to a win in Game 1, but are still a couple game under .500. That said, the Rockies have won two games in a row and are now scheduled to start Kyle Freeland. Freeland has been solid to start the season, and while he has a record of 0-1, he has an ERA of 2.89. In a total of 9.1 innings pitched, Freeland has allowed three earned runs, which suggests that he could continue his success against Houston.

Our Colorado Rockies vs Houston Astros Prediction
Houston is the heavy favorite in this game; however, Colorado looks to be the best betting option. The Astros jumped out to an early lead in Game 1, but were quickly overwhelmed due to some lackluster pitching.
The same outcome looks likely in Game 2, as the Rockies appear to have a major advantage in starting pitching. Freeland has made both of his starts this season in Colorado, whereas Burrows has little experience pitching in Colorado.
Simply put, Freeland's solid start to the season gives the Rockies a great chance to extend their winning streak. For that reason, our Colorado Rockies vs. Houston Astros prediction is: Colorado Rockies +1.5.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
