    Astros batters taking hittable first pitches. Swing!

    I mentioned before.

    Looks like they are picking up on something via Justin.

    Way too many balanced swings.

    Not stressing yet. Verlander avoided the early implosion and the Astros batters are making good contact. These are the kinds of games this franchise wins. Just need to hold until the bats get going.

    Not hard to figure out. Look where his CB starts and ends up. It's never near the zone on most pitches.

    His slider hasn't been much better. So they're sitting FB

    There’s been multiple slider takes off the outside of the plate that flashed a strike 90% of the way and fell off. Multiple batters haven’t swung. I mean, come on.

    Red alert for someone who’s pitched higher level. They are on some mannerism or Maldy.

    Even Correa credited the Astros success to Maldy in an interview this week.
