Has Chas made any positive contributions offensively since he came back from the injury?

It sure feels like that without looking the answer is "no".

ETA. 4 singles, 1 double, 1 triple, 1 RBI. It's no.

Chas had 41 x-base hits last year including 22 HR's

averaged 1 x-base hit every 10 at-bats

he's fallen off a cliff in 2024

5 x base hits in 108 ABs. 1 every 21.

He hasn't fallen off a cliff. He took a swan dive with no parachute.

Why is Hader pitching up 4?

That's 5 straight quality starts for Hunter.

The Astros' pitching development continues to impress, making me cautiously optimistic for the future.

Espada doesn't know how to manage his bullpen?

Could he be pivoting to dual closers?

I like it here

Think it sets the tone coming off an off-day and after what happened with Abreu today.

Get your dude out there to seal up a shutout and let everyone know no more playing around.

Yeah dude, it was there. Y'all lose.

Honestly the first time this season that it felt like we had any urgency.

Espada let Hunter go 7 when he was rolling, skipped Pressly in the 8th, and gave it to Hader in the 9th.

Pretty refreshing actually

I wonder if Abreu was really as beloved and respected in the clubhouse as we were lead to believe? Not saying he wasn't, but there just seemed to be a little more urgency tonight.

One of the quickest games I've ever been to. That was a fun one.

same thing happened when he went down. I think the guys were pressing because they knew he was a black hole in the lineup

They made it sound like he was well-liked in the clubhouse today on 790 but who knows.

Nice win, fellas. I like the response after another road trip where we let some wins get away.

tomorrow's lineup will be a good test of urgency

Dubon needs to be in it

he's played parts of 6 games at first -- and performed just fine

It's only one game, and we were pretty lifeless in innings 2 through 6, but that was a good win against a really good pitcher. Keep it rolling tomorrow!

Nice win! I have to shamefully admit I took Chas as "my guy" to start the season. Needless to say I haven't denfended him, how could I?
