A.Heaney u11.5 Outs+100

Heaney pitched really well vs BAL, only allowing 2 hits and a walk, and he still was pulled at 11 outs. Dunning is piggy-backing off of him again, meaning Heaney won’t have much of a leash at all. He has poor numbers vs the crux of the Astros (Altuve, Bregman, Yordan, Abreu and Peña are a collective 35/112 with 14 XBH off him) - and the Astros crushed lefties all season. Momentum back with the Astros, this one should be managed tightly by Bochy. Chapman and LeClerc are rested, and Smith only threw 12 pitches yesterday.
