Astros vs Rockies Prediction

I want nothing to do with the Rockies, especially with Dollander on the mound. Dollander is a rookie who has an ERA of nearly seven and a 1.63 WHIP. In his last 13.1 innings, Dollander has allowed 20 hits and 12 earned runs. No, thanks. Valdez isn’t having a good August, but he’s been solid this season overall, and in 77.2 home innings he has a 1.85 ERA and .214 allowed batting average. The price is what it is for a reason. Give me the Astros and the RL for max betting value.
