Astros acquire Caleb Ferguson

In his extremely small sample with Houston, Ferguson has a 25% k rate against a 5% walk rate. He has a 2.65 xfip. He’s had some bad luck on batted balls.

It looks like he’s made a repertoire change. With the Yankees he was throwing cutter, 4 seam, slurve. His last outing with Houston he ditched the slurve and threw a sinker. He is also throwing more cutters and less four seams. So who knows how he’ll look the rest of the season but there’s a chance they “fixed” him.

There is going to come a time when a team is going to offer enough money to break up Murphy and Miller. Right now, my understanding is that the Astros are paying both very well - but someone will come in and offer too much money.

As for Ferguson, hopefully he learned his lesson from shaking off Diaz- who goes over the reports and meets with the pitching coaches….

Yeah they need to do whatever they can to keep Miller and Murphy together as long as possible. Cant be forever but another 2-3 years would be great.

At least keep one of them around for the long run.
