Need Lambert going deep.

An Astro starting pitcher has gone more than 5 innings ONCE in the last 11 games (Wesneski went 7 in SF)

Also--excluding the one game where King was the opener, Astro starters have given up at least 2 runs in 20 straight games

The last "shut down" game by a starter was Brown going 7 shutout innings vs the White Sox on 7/25

In the last 21 games, the Astros have had only 4 "quality starts" (RIP Framber)...and 2 of those were the bare minimum 6 IP, 3 ER.

Yeah, we probably needed another arm at the deadline...

How dare you? Daulton Varsho clearly has 2 arms.

I sure wish he’d begin using them effectively.

We suck at starting pitching, but we make up for it by having a shitty offense

It’s just mind blowing to me.

Yes I get as aggravated with Walker as anyone but he’s still the starting 1B and you’re already down a starter with Pena. But gotta have those days off man!

Another arm doesn’t get us passed the first round.

One wonders what he would think about Daulton Varsho’s execution.
