On the pitching side, the top guys who stand out (results only, not stuff) are France, Martinez, Mushinski, Blanco, & Joe Record. All near the top of the leaderboard in xwOBA, EV, HH%, & K%.
Arrighetti was fine. He got hit a little harder than the rest, walked more, and gave up more balls in the air.
Grae Kessinger left today's game with right hamstring discomfort, per the Astros.

Ok that helps. Thanks.
What is the 14th related to? The 19 Astros players tracked or all of Triple A?
Grae Kessinger felt a cramp in his right hamstring, Joe Espada said. Espada also said Yordan Alvarez was always planned to just take two at-bats. He’s fine.

I had kind of a fun thought for the regulars on this thread. I remember in about 2019-2020 farmer would always have Tucker's back when people posted against him… to the point where we all said don't make farmer mad talking about TED.
It would be fun if we had a draft where each poster had one player that they HAVE to defend and post positively about at all costs throughout the season even if they play at a Maldonado level.

As the Astros’ rotation depth continues to dwindle, it’s imperative that Hunter Brown “take a step forward.”
