Jayden Murray looked really, really good in his debut last night. FB up to 98. Of course it was only 13 pitches in low leverage, but this bullpen can use all the hope we can muster.
Ort to IL with elbow inflammation, which could have explained yesterday. So he's probably done for season also.
Just read that Spencer is out for the season - with elbow inflammation. and now Ort too?......we must be teaching something incorrectly with all these elbow injuries..... Pitchers are getting Tommy John in Houston at historic levels, has to be something our coaches are getting them to do. DD
They should put a bone and joint center in the plans for the Astros neighborhood revitalization project.
It does seem that way sometimes. Maybe that's why the Astros usually get unheralded pitchers to come and in pitch well (but it does long term damage to their elbows).
I love Correa but moving Parades just to accommodate him would be a mistake. Much cheaper, younger, and better.
