I certainly hope this Valdez injury is legit and not some BS excuse to skip the All-Star game because we needed his start tomorrow
Eovaldi 67-68 4.15 era before this season. He was literally a JAG. But he's going to be in contention for the Cy Young at this rate. 10-3 2.68 era as it stands now and if he wins this game.
You try to get Dubin to get once through the lineup and then pull him tomorrow. Hopefully 2 1/3 with 2 runs given up. Then you piece together the rest of the game. Montero, Maton hopefully gets you though the 6th inning.
Eovaldi is pretty much their ace with Degrom being done. It's July and he's holding up. Don't know if he can carry that team through a deep playoff run but the Astros have their own issues to continue to address.
