The 12-22 Houston Astros begin a 6-game road trip with a 3-game set against the New York Yankees Tuesday evening. Fresh off losing yet another series, this time to the Seattle Mariners, the Astros will hope to get things turned around away from Minute Maid Park. They were unable to hold onto a late lead in Game 3 with the Mariners on Sunday as Cal Raleigh went yard in the 9th off Josh Hader. Now, they face the team that began their torturous 2024 campaign. The Yankees swept these Astros back in March for the 1st series of each’s season. 3 of the 4 games were close, but the Astros just simply could not find their way into the win column. The Yankees have since gone 19-13 and are currently on a 3-game winning streak after sweeping the Detroit Tigers. Neither team will be starting a pitcher that played in the previous series. Just Verlander (1-0, 2.08) will face Luis Gil (2-1, 3.19). Verlander is coming off a 7 inning no decision against the Guardians where he allowed just 2 runs on 6 hits. Gil picked up his 2nd win of the season in his last start which came against the Orioles. He struck out 5 over 6.1 innings of work and allowed no runs on just 2 hits.

Our New York Yankees vs Houston Astros Prediction

After winning 5 of their last 6, and looking like they may have turned a corner, the Astros lost the last 2 games of their series with the Mariners. Now they are facing a hot Yankees team that seemingly have their number lately. Luis Gil looked tremendous against a solid Orioles lineup and should be able to get through 5-6 innings here. Unless Verlander can go 8 innings here, and avoid the woeful Houston bullpen to play any factor, the Astros will have a hard time putting this Yankee team away.
