After allowing the Phillies to come back from a 5-0 deficit, the Astros will send out Framber Valdez. In the regular season, Valdez was 25-6 to the NRFI with a proficient 10-4 home at NRFI split.
Like Wheeler, Valdez has also performed well against teams' leadoff hitters, only allowing 17 hits in 94 at-bats, good for a .181 average.
Valdez's most important matchups will be against Kyle Schwarber, who is 0-for-7, Nick Castellanos, who is 0-for-4, and Rhys Hoskins, who is 0-for-2
