If there's a clutch player for the Yankees, it's Stanton, and thanks to him, at least for now, the Yankees have avoided further decline in the standings. Stanton went 1-for-2 with two walks, and his hit was a decisive, two-run RBI hit as the Yankees won Game 2 5-4 in the Bronx against the Astros, after losing Game 1 3-5. That loss again brought furious criticism to manager Aaron Boone for his decision to bring in Williams again at a crucial moment in the game; he allowed a home run by Trammell on Friday, inflicting a costly loss on the Yankees.

Games 1 and 2 were close in both the development and betting odds, but the Yankees were left with a favorable pitching matchup for the series finale, featuring left-hander Max Fried. Fried was almost guaranteed a win at the start of the season, but the Yankees lost three games in July and August, with Fried starting as the betting favorite.

For their part, the Astros, with the addition of Correa again, once again look like a team destined to contend for the World Series this year. Correa has hit more since joining the Astros than he had been doing with the Twins; the Puerto Rican went 2-for-3 in Saturday's loss, and Altuve hit before him, going 2-for-4.

Our Houston Astros vs New York Yankees Prediction

The Astros face another tough series in Houston against the Red Sox starting Monday, so they've decided to have Jason Alexander start Sunday against the Yankees, keeping his spot especially because of his strong last start against the Marlins, in which he dominated, pitching six scoreless innings. He's also managed to collect six strikeouts in each of his last two outings. Our prediction for Astros vs Yankees is: Under 9 runs.

Prediction:

 

Under 9 runs.
