The Astros pushed Baltimore to the brink with 26 runs across three wins as Spencer Arrighetti starts the finale, a matchup that could tilt on the Orioles’ lefty, Trevor Rogers. The showdown has obvious fantasy angles: Arrighetti’s early-season rise versus a tough Baltimore lineup and potential bullpen volatility for Houston if juggled early.

Cristian Javier’s uneven form adds a layer of concern for Houston, while Christian Walker’s 2-run homer demonstrates the Yankees-like pop in the lineup. Bennett Sousa’s elbow strain could alter late-inning plans, creating value shifts for fantasy owners rostering Astros relievers.
