Hunter’s Achilles Heal is the first inning.

Any word on Abreu and his workouts? If that guy could come back and just hit above .260 it would be a huge pick-me-up
Someone needs to drug test Meyers.
He’s transforming from a Clark Kent persona into Superman.
Perhaps the patience the Astros have shown him is beginning to pay off.

Pena. Bang !
Brown looks better. Not great but better.
At least 1 more start then hopefully long relief.

Really nice professional win.
Mariners lost and the Rangers are losing.
Bullpen was solid and we gained ground in the division. Good win.

I can’t think of another established major leaguer who took an assignment to go do tee work and soft toss for weeks.

I guess it is better than giving him his outright release.

It’s a good move in a bad predicament for both parties. Honestly Bregman should have gone with him for a couple of weeks.

Still waiting for the Promised One to make his appearance…baby Verlander.

Brown has great stuff. Brown can look dominating for an in inning. But his concentration and his control leaves him and he leaves a fastball over the plate after walking two batters.
There are lots of guys with great stuff that don’t end up being great MLB pitchers. He needs to start figuring it out or he is going back to the minors.

I like Bregman for his defense, but in my opinion, Bregman gets more strike calls on pitches that are outside than any other Astro.

True, but making 20M and knowing you have another 20M waiting next year helps.

Yes sir.
His stuff is above average….ive said before the control is not there….not “wild”, like 6 walks….”wild” in the zone….you can’t throw a 93mph cutter/slider across the middle of the plate….all you’ve done is speed up the bat of average hitters.
If you combined Hunter’s stuff with JV’s control he’d be a CY Young winner.
Hopefully he’ll get there one day….one other note….
The kid battles like boss….no quit in him.
Doobey needs to play 150 games.

Yordan looks lost at the plate.
Might be time to move him down in the lineup.
