record (2026)
-0.3
vs market (Earl \u2212 line)
Houston sits at 19th with a -0.149 runs-neutral rating, but the 0.562 jump versus last week is the real story and marks them as a clear buy-low riser. Their -0.253 strength of schedule says that rating was earned against soft competition, so the market's -0.26 gap to their number looks like an overcorrection rather than a fair price. At 81-81 with no key players unavailable, this is a league-average team being priced slightly below average, which is a modest value on the Houston side.
