The Houston Astros get their season started against the Chicago White Sox this Thursday night at Minute Maid Park.

So how will the Astros fare this season? Bovada already has some player props set for the season, so let's start with the ones that really caught our attention.

Framber Valdez's win total is set for 14.5. He recorded 17 wins last season for reference. Cristian Javier and Luis Garcia's win totals are 11.5. Taking the over on Javier seems like money in the bank.

What about the offense? Vegas clearly thinks Yordan Alvarez is poised for another big year with his home run total at 36.5. Hopefully his hand issues are a thing of the past.

Another number that really stood out involves new Astros first baseman Jose Abreu.

Abreu's home run total fell off a bit last year, with him only hitting 15. He's hit 30 home runs or more 5 times over the course of his career. Will playing at Minute Maid Park increase his power numbers this year?

Vegas believes that to be the case, as his home run total is at 23.5. A nice jump from last year for the new Astro.

At the end of the day, what is Vegas telling us? Most of the numbers set for the Astros are eerily similar to the stats Houston put up last year.

Does this mean the Astros are more likely than not to have another huge season statistically?
