A vacation to Mexico City and the Colorado Rockies is all they needed. Hopefully they carry the momentum to America. Hopefully they can make it a 3 game (Hopefully longer) winning streak. Is the season high 2?
Runs, good start from Framber, 3 shutout innings from the big three. Rockies are trash, but you gotta start somewhere.
Our offense is still very reliant on the HR most days. HR's are great, but I'd like to see more doubles and triples too.
The way it's supposed to go...strong start, a few leave the yard, and the back end of the bullpen shuts things down. Rinse and repeat, and things can turn around just as quickly as they went south. With Montero looking like his 22 version, the backend can get even deadlier than we thought if the guys keep coming around
MISSION COMPLETE 4 IP 0 Runs 2 Hits 5 K's 0 Walks Doesn't matter if the Rockies suck... Astros need wins and they dominated, pitching and offensively. Excellent to have Framber back and pitching decently -- good warmup performance/game by him. .
Now just six back of the Mariners. Mariners have three games against the Braves before their three-game series with the Astros next weekend.
I guess, technically, Javier "can" return the weekend after the weekend after next weekend. If he's healthy a couple days post-15, no problem..... but are things worse (per Astros FO usual) than what's being said?
No logically sound person thought/thinks either of those teams suck. Both are above 500, without including their Houston results.
