Valdez is apparently NOT a big game pitcher.
Astros need pitching next year. I'm officially off the "sign Correa" train and all in on getting a pitcher to tandem with McCullers, because Valdez is mentally weak.
Yeah, cause pitching was the issue the last two games.
Ok, let's try and think critically here for just a second. Greinke gave you a great 4 innings- he's gone. Odorizzi has been so great that he hasn't even been used. You ready for McCullers, Valdez, Garcia, Urquidy and Odorizzi next year?
And as for Correa, he hasn't exactly helped the offense. When the entire team pulls their disappearing act at the plate, you darn well better pitch your brains out. So yeah, I stand by my point. I'd rather have a top-line starter than Correa.
