On April 24 JV was 1-0 in his one and only start. The Astros were 6-18 In the other games he didn't participate in.
Still don't know what to think of JV's 2 starts. Clearly he doesn't have the bamboozling put away pitch. But in the first game he struck out the batter for the 3rd out, only to be given a walk, home run follows. This game, 2 strikes that were called balls led to walks, 2 score. Finally that bloop hit on soft contact that dropped behind Altuve. Annoying game.
Neither Gamel nor Heyward should EVER get called-off by Meyers or Chas with runners on. Let guys who can actually throw a ball catch it.
