Houston Astros Set to Dominate White Sox in Opening Game with Valdez on the Mound
The Houston team has struggled on the road this season, with a 5-7 record away from Daikin Park. However, they have a favorable matchup against a White Sox team that is currently 15 games below .500. Cannon performed well in his last outing and has had success in the past against the Astros, but the White Sox lack excitement overall. Valdez recently pitched a complete game, although he did not receive support from the lineup in a shutout loss. With an extra day of rest for their bullpen, the Astros are in a good position to secure a win in the opening game. Valdez is expected to continue his solid performance in the rotation, leading the Astros to victory.
