The Houston Astros face the Chicago White Sox with both teams looking to establish momentum in May. After successfully resting key players like Yordan Alvarez, the Astros hope to capitalize on their recent success, winning three out of their past four series. Left-hander Framber Valdez, fresh from a great performance despite a loss, is expected to play a pivotal role in the series. The White Sox también look to maintain their form following a victory against the Milwaukee Brewers, aided by standout performances from players like Luis Robert Jr.
"Valdez had a great start," Espada said. "Eight strong innings and a ton of strikes. He did a tremendous job for us."
"Forty-eight hours (rest), huge," Astros manager Joe Espada said. "Specific players really will benefit from this when we get to that long stretch of games in June, July, when we usually step on the gas pedal a little bit."
