Atlanta's Ozzie Albies dominance as a hitter is so good at the plate, that it more than offsets any possible flaws he might have. Houston enters this series in a bad cold snap, having struggled for a bit. Houston has not been steady on the mound giving up a .265 batting avg and a disastrous 5.35 ERA. The Texans pitching crew has given up 51 total hits over the last 5 games, and are winning only 28% of their games since 4.9.2024 as well. Atlanta wins
