The Astros face their toughest test of the season Monday night as they go into Tampa to take on the Rays, who lead the American League at 19-3, and are a perfect 13-0 at home.
Houston will shuffle up its lineup facing a really talented Rays pitching staff - Mauricio Dubon will still lead off, but Jeremy Pena will slide up into the two-hole, with Kyle Tucker moved up to the three spot, Alex Bregman will bat fourth, Jose Abreu will bat fifth, and Corey Julks will bat sixth. Yainer Diaz gets the start at DH and will bat 7th, followed by Jake Meyers and Martin Maldonado.
Yordan Alvarez is out with neck discomfort.
