@shaeferrr Yeah they were super unlucky last year. But the ABs with RISP today looked a lot like most of last year which is pretty concerning. Obviously a lot of season to go, some bad luck today too Yordan and Isaac should’ve both homered
Astros rotation to begin season, per manager Espada:
Hunter Brown
Mike Burrows
Cristian Javier
Tatsuya Imai
Lance McCullers Jr.
Spencer Arrighetti will begin season in Triple-A; will be option when Astros go to 6-man rotation.
The #Astros are ranked #17th on the first @MLB power rankings of the year.
“There is a sense that the Astros’ prime era is over, but this is still a team with Jose Altuve, Yordan Alvarez and Hunter Brown. It will be nice to have Carlos Correa back home for a full season, and fascinating to see how Tatsuya Imai transitions to MLB.”
Be prepared for the Cam Smith rocket ship in Houston this year 🚀
He made some necessary swing changes to be on time for big league pitching in 2026 that we noticed during Spring Training
