    Mitch Keller is the real deal. Amazing matchup with Javier.

    A weird scheduling quirk that our first 13 games are against central teams, then 3 games against Arlington, and then another 11 games against eastern division teams.

    Minute Maid Park is the western most park we play in until May 5.

    I knew Dusty wouldn't let Diaz start 2 games in row. He's just gonna have to figure out major league pitching starting once every 5 days.

    Faced Dylan Cease opening day and looked bad like everybody else, has gotten 2 starts since.

    Can I ask a question? Who is(are) the leader(s) of the pitching staff? Is Lance the man now?

    I think it's gotta be Framber as the ace and Javier as a close second. Brown is pretty good too but young.

    Leader? Probably Framber. Can't be LMJ b/c you have to actually post to be the leader- he hasn't. Best pitcher? Javier. Best Stuff? Brown. That last one might be Javier though as the invisiball is pretty much the best weapon any Astro pitcher has.
