Typical slump stretch where team is bad in all phases at times (hitting, pitching, managing, fielding, etc.)
This Astros team is likely the best in baseball but what isn’t discussed is our lack of depth on the pitching side. With Martes and Whitley ******** the bed, and Cole and Miley gone.... all I can say is McCullers better come back as good as ever. Really no excuse for lack of pitching help we have gotten from the system. We have gotten almost nothing from the pen and in the rotation McCullers is about it. A few injuries and it really shows.
The Cole injury coupled with the rain delay really ****ed with our mojo. I have no concern about the division but I’d have liked to walk out of this series with a 12-13 game lead and right now we’re hoping for 7.5. Let’s get the **** back home and right the ship.
