Jeremy Peña and Isaac Paredes have struggled, each with a .130 batting average. The Astros’ team batting stats show room for improvement. They have a .191 batting average, ranking 24th in the league.

Final Betting Pick

The Astros’ money line at 109 looks favorable due to Spencer Arrighetti’s recent performance. He pitched six innings against the Mets, allowing only one run and one hit. This strong showing gives the Astros an edge, especially since Bailey Ober struggled in his last outing, giving up eight runs in less than three innings.

The under 7.5 pick seems reasonable given both teams’ hitting struggles. The Astros are batting .191, while the Twins are at .180, both near the bottom of the league. With pitching likely to dominate, a low-scoring game is expected, making the under a solid choice.
