New York Yankees
Masahiro Tanaka was great over six innings on Monday and left with a 3–1 lead after giving up just three hits. The bullpen gave it up, though. Zach Britton and Adam Ottavino gave up three runs and the Yankees lost, 4–3.
Tuesday will be Jonathan Loaisiga against Gerrit Cole and the finale on Wednesday features James Paxton against Collin McHugh.

Paxton killed the Astros last season as a member of the Mariners, going 4–0 with a 2.05 ERA. He’s got a 2.89 ERA in a dozen career starts against the ‘Stros and is off to a good start as a Yankee.
He’s got 14 strikeouts in 11 innings. The ERA isn’t spectacular but it will even out if the strikeouts keep rolling in. Paxton looks every bit like an ace in the early going.
Houston Astros
Houston won with a dribbler off the bat of Carlos Correa on Monday. The star shortstop has a homer and three doubles after a complete power-outage in the second half of last season.
McHugh is off to a great start in his return to the rotation after spending last season in the bullpen. This is a guy who has won 17 games as a starting pitcher and he’s got 13 strikeouts in 11 innings so far in 2019.

I would be shocked if the kept piling up strikeouts at a pace even close to what he’s set to begin this season. It doesn’t mean he can’t continue to be ultra-effective, though. He’s given up just six hits in those 11 innings, leading to three runs.

Free New York Yankees vs. Houston Astros MLB Prediction: it goes under.
These two teams played a bunch of low-scoring games last season and in the 2017 ALCS. Strong pitching all around should continue to out-weigh the scary power on both sides, especially while lineups aren’t at full strength.
