Eh. I don't feel "respect" based on that article. Let's kick their ass and show them why we are the team in the West to fear... and that's before Lowrie and Springer are back.
Huuuge series that could have major implications towards the end of the season. Just wish we had Keuchel on the mound for this series
Probably so... McHugh has a ~2.00 Career ERA vs LA So pumped the Stros are playing meaningful games. This is the season's biggest series thus far. LET'S SHOW EM WHO'S BOSS!!! Spoiler
Also surprising that they seem to think we play "small ball" and only have a "couple guys with some pop". We have above average power all over the place. And while we do steal bases, I wouldn't categorize what we do as small ball.
