Wow, dude swung at ball 4. Haven’t they scouted him?
3 up and 3 down!!
9 game streak allowing 5 runs or more, yowzer. Give me more of what Spencer was cooking
Curve ball delight tonight.
This level of spending is just incredible. They’re apparently working with unlimited resources.
No one has resolved my Imai dilemma. Please get to work guys. I need to know how this plays out.
I don’t know, but his STRONG TEXT from the fall looks kind of weak right now.
He’ll probably sort it out but Crane is probably asking Brown to show him his notes on the due diligence done on this guy.
I hope you’re right and that he sorts it out in Houston instead of somewhere else. But a 27-year old throwing up excuses like a 9th grader is concerning. He’s gonna have to grow up before he can show up.

He needs to slather it all over his entire body.
Scheiss is getting the start tonight, huh?
Did I spell that correctly?
I think Weiss is much better suited as a SP……the stuff is there.
Hopefully he proves it tonight.
Well, the stuff is one thing, but you have to strike out a lot of dudes to overcome that 2+ WHIP. ![]()
Well he’s got 15 K’s in 11 IP….its those 17 hits that are problematic.
Don’t forget the 6 walks! ![]()
Stadium is dead
This home plate umpire is terrible. He misses so many calls that the guys just can’t appeal all of them.
He missed one early in the game that was 6" low. Brutal.
Only the lowly White Sox have a worse record in all of baseball and we’re still only 2.5 out. This division belongs to anyone with gumption to take it.
Ullola is back making a start for SL so it looks like he’s over the hurt ankle.
If he has a good one tonight he should be moved into Astros rotation.
We’ll see.
The earliest Hader could come back will be sometime in the middle of May. ![]()
Lambert will be the 10th different pitcher to start for the Astros in the first 4 weeks of the season. Incredible.
Astros moves:
— Brian McTaggart (@brianmctaggart) April 17, 2026
RHP Peter Lambert selected to the Major League roster
RHP Christian Roa optioned to Triple-A Sugar Land
LHP Josh Hader transferred to the 60-day IL
Who was it? Pollard that said he could foresee Hader ending up missing a big chunk of the season back when this first went down. And we were told a few weeks at the beginning.
This outfit needs to find a better way to do due diligence. They could also make sure players warm up before throwing 100 mph in Florida
