Yesterday, graded
Tuesday, September 8
Andrew Painter has turned a corner, posting a 3.12 ERA over his last 7 starts including a dominant 7-inning gem against Arizona, while Houston's Hayden Wesneski carries a middling 3.18 ERA with limited strikeout upside. The Astros are without Carlos Correa (60-day IL) and multiple bullpen arms, weakening a lineup that will face a Phillies club running 15-5 over their last 20 games. Talent and momentum both point to Philadelphia covering at home.
Everyone wants to sleep on the Astros, but Houston is showing up fully healthy while the Phillies are dealing with a pitching staff rotation hole with Caleb Kilian on the IL — that rotation depth matters in a tight September run. The Astros are a battle-tested October-or-bust squad that doesn't just roll over for anyone, and getting +1.5 means they can even drop a close one and still cash. Don't count out Houston in Philly — the 'Stros have made a living proving doubters wrong!
