The second series of the season will see the Houston back on the road to take on the Texas Rangers. The Astros got off to a rough start and will be looking to bounce back against their in-state rivals.
The Rangers have won the last three meetings in a row over the Astros, dating all the way back to July of last year.
Houston Astros
The Astros had a tough time getting things going, hence their 1-3 record in the first series. After winning on opening day, they have now lost three games in a row and need to get back on track even though it is super early.
The offense for the Astros as they scored 5 runs in the opening day win, but then just 4 runs combined in the next three games. Look for the Astros bats to bounce back in a big way when they travel to Arlington.

The pitching was solid for Houston over their first four games. They allowed 11 runs over the first four games, which is not terrible, but with some of the pitchers they have, they will need to focus on holding their opponents in key situations.
Texas Rangers
The Rangers will get an extended home stand to start the season and are coming off two big wins over the Cubs. The Rangers are not really expected to do much this season, so a 2-1 start is not bad at all given their situation.
The Rangers offense exploded for 11 runs in game three and they scored the winning run on a wild pitch to secure the series win. Look for the bats to remain hot as the Astros come to town looking to bounce games from a few of their recent struggles.

The pitching was not great for Texas against the Cubs, especially in game three where they gave up 10 runs. With an explosive offense like the Astros have come to town, giving up 10 runs will not work. This means if the Rangers want to continue their win streak, they need to tighten up their pitching big time.
