With plenty of runs to back him up, Framber Valdez tossed an impressive, efficient complete-game shutout as the Astros took the first of the three-game set against the Tigers, 7-0. With the quality start, Valdez’s streak goes to 24, tying Jacob DeGrom (2018) for the most consecutive in a single season. One more will break […]Read More
In a long, 162-game season it is easy to lose sight of what a streaky game baseball can prove to be over time. Remember earlier in the season when Alex Bregman was struggling and fans wondered if he would be Bregman again? Fast forward, and the heart and soul of the Astros is doing just […]Read More
At present, there are five clear American League teams most likely to oppose the Astros in a Postseason series - they'll have to contend with two of them if they are going to advance to the World Series for the fourth time in six years. Let's take a closer look at how they each stack up...Read More
Luis Garcia gave up three early runs, but a clutch grand slam by Alex Bregman put the Astros ahead, and they never looked back, scoring twelve unanswered runs on their way to a 12-4 win over the Angels. With the win in this last meetup of these teams this year, the Astros not only take […]Read More
The Astros have the best team in the American League. The Los Angeles Angels have two of the best players in baseball, men who have four MVPs between them. For one night, the two were better than the whole. Mike Trout (2 for 4, 3 RBI) homered for the sixth straight game – an Angels […]Read More

On September 1st, all MLB teams had the luxury of expanding their rosters from 26 to 28, comprised of an even split of 14 pitchers and 14 position players. That has been helpful for the Astros, who currently have injuries to their best starter and best reliever, Justin Verlander and Ryan Pressly. For Verlander, it’s […]Read More
Kyle Tucker and Company would not let Texas beat them on consecutive nights as they won an extra-innings thriller 4-3 on a walk-off wild pitch. It took a while to get there. Cristian Javier came into tonight’s game with 6 career starts against the Texas Rangers and his record against them was 1-1, with a […]Read More
Hunter Brown made his highly anticipated debut for the Astros against the Texas Rangers tonight and made his presence known. In the very first inning, the very first batter he faced was Marcus Semien, who he struck out on four straight pitches for his first career strikeout as a Major Leaguer. He then proceeded to […]Read More
Scrolling through Twitter, I noticed an Astros take that caught my eye. My good friend John Granato tweeted out: “Urquidy as the third starter is not even arguable.” My first thought was a call back to Star Wars. “Only a Sith speaks in absolutes.” Of course, that comment itself is an absolute, which means the […]Read More
What happened: The Astros bats came alive and rolled in a 9-1 victory over the Angels on Sunday, winning the series two games to one. Jose Altuve went 3 for 4 and drove in three runs. The Astros got off to a fast start, putting up five runs in the second inning. It started when […]Read More
