ALCS Game 1 Betting: 

This New York Yankees (102-65) vs Houston Astros (109-56) this Wednesday Night at Minute Maid Park at 7:37 PM ET. The MLB odds have the Astros as a -190 moneyline favorite, +115 on the runline with the total sitting at 6.5 runs.

The Yankees will have right hander Jameson Taillon get the start and the Astros will have their right hander Justin Verlander take the mound.

Jameson Taillon has an impressive 14-5 record in 32 appearances this season with an ERA of 3.91 and 151 strikeouts

Taillon faced the Astros 4 months ago and over 5.2 innings he let up 10 hits, 2 home runs and 6 earned runs.  In Taillon’s 3 appearances against the Astros in his career, he has a record of 0-1 with an ERA of 4.58 and 15 strikeouts.

Justin Verlander continues to be one of the best pitchers in baseball. He currently has an 18-4 record in 28 appearances this season with an ERA of 1.75 and 185 strikeouts.  The only red flag is that he got destroyed for six runs over four innings last week in their Game 1 loss to the Mariners. At 39-years old, he’ll be making his 32nd career postseason start since 2006.
