DAT 5/12: Royals (Wacha) @ Astros (Gusteaux) 7:10 CT

Week in review:

- Got behind early the first 2 games against Milwaukee and our bats did not give us a chance for a comeback
- Wesneski might be cooked. Allowed a first inning 4-spot after extra time off, his velo wayyyy down, and he went to the IL with right elbow discomfort. We all know what that means. Most likely a date with our well-known friend, Tommy John
- Frambaw looked like he wanted to get paid for once. 7IP 7K 3H 1ER
- Hunter Brown with another dominant outing vs Cincy snapping our 9-game losing streak to them. 5.2IP 9K 2H 0ER
- Jose Altuve remains the worst goddamn baserunner in the motherfricking league
- Cocksuck has a 6-game hitting streak and has raised his BA from .198 to .225 in a week. He also had 2 multi-hit games against the Reds. Maybe a sign that he's turning the corner? We'll see
- Saturday's game was over before OWL could even take his seat. LMJ 0.1IP 7ER. Don't feel like beating a dead horse, but he simply sucks. Doesn't have it anymore. Throw him in the bullpen and hope for the best
- The bats did show fight in Saturday's game by putting up 9 runs, but it's impossible to comeback from a 10-run first inning
- Ronel Blanco had himself a career day with 11 Ks. Hopefully a big confidence booster for him
- Managed to have 12 LOB and hit 3-13 with RISP yesterday. Ongoing issue this season. Have to figure it out if we want to breakout of .500 ball

Injury updates:
- Club is optimistic about Yed returning for Rangers series. He will get some tee work in beginning today
- Altuve still nursing a tweaked hamstring. Expect him back tomorrow, but there is a possibility for today per McTaggart
- No idea who will pitch on Wednesday vs KC. Confirmed will be some AAA scrub

Looking ahead:
3 game homestand vs KC. We lost last series to them 2-1 with 3 quality starts. Lost 2-0 the first 2 games and then our bats exploded in G3. Typical
4 games @ South Oklahoma Rangers (FTR)
No off days until 26May
