Putrid bullpen tonight. Remember a week ago when all people had to complain about was the Stros not being high enough in some power rankings. Yeah, that was cool.
Ridiculously bad bullpen and urquidy left in a couple of batters too long. But it wouldn’t have mattered. Bullpen woulda coughed up the lead anyway. I try not to take things too seriously in April and/or May but the Astros are playing terrible baseball right now. It would be nice if this didn’t get out of hand. I hope we can put together a few W’s and get some mojo back.
For some perspective, here are the current betting favorites to win the American League: #1: Yankees (5-8, 5th place in the AL East) #2: White Sox (6-7, 3rd AL Central) #3: Twins (6-8, 4th) #4: Bluejays (6-7, 2nd) #5: Astros (6-7, 4th) Standings at this point are essentially meaningless.
