Valdez has stellar stats vs As bats, Sears has stellar stats vs Astros bats. Line set at 7.5 leans me towards a pitchers duel here (Ironic with the As, I’m aware). Small play here as I’m testing the F5 waters, but locking it and not double thinking.

These aren't your championship Astros. This line projects the largest edge I've seen in quite some time. I'd actually play it 2 units if I still didn't believe HOU was a significant favorite, just not nearly this significant. OAK has no edges in this game, but HOU is far more good than great in any area outside of Valdez's performance.
