Astros 1, Chi Sox 3
W: Sale, L: McMullers, S: Robertson
Well, the anticipated start for Mr. Carlos Correa was nice. He got an RBI single and made some spectacular plays in the field. Unfortunately, he was the only Astro on the night to get an RBI.
Hinch had little choice but to start Marwin and Villar in this game, luckily neither at SS. I like Marwin, I have no problem with him. Villar on the other hand, I would not be upset if he was traded. I’m sure he is a nice guy and dances well, but at this point I am not sure what value he’s adding.
Honestly, this team had been playing the way I was expecting at the start of the season. I have loved the run they’ve made so far this season, but I think the league is starting to catch up with them. I would love for them to prove me wrong, but they are going to have to get some hits – and not just homeruns.
I do believe they are more than a pitcher away from the playoffs.
But hey, Mr. Correa is here and so far, I like him a lot.
