Dallas takes the mound for his second start after out dueling the reigning AL Cy young award winner in his last outing.

The bats have improved these last two games in Arlington, now it just needs to be about timely hitting.

Fearless prediction: 5-1 Astros win and move back to .500 with the win going into the Oakland series.

EDIT:

4/12 Astros vs Rangers

Hopefully the stros can execute the simple pitcher to first base throw today.


And don't throw behind runners who are standing 2 feet off of third base.

4 unearned runs last night on bone headed plays was rough to watch.

He needs it. Hopefully Gattis can get something going. Keuchel keeps his CY Young campaign going today

Is it to early to panic? I feel like we are still going for a top 5 pick this year

I think it would have been a good idea to get Gattis in the field somehow to maybe give him a little more to think about than just his shitty at bats so far. Maybe it would loosen him up a bit

Marwin at 1st is ok with me at this point. It's not like Carter is lighting the world on fire. Could be interesting.

Like Ashby said last night, Marwin can play anywhere and perform well for us

Good on Dallas.

There's a lot of hog arms in the bigs right now.

Gattis is hitless in his last 29 at-bats (since last year), which is the second-longest active streak. Mike Napoli of Boston is 0-for-32.

Can someone explain how they came to 8.5?

Keuchel shut down the Indians who have gone on to score 2,5,4, and 6 in their last 4 games.

The Astros have shown no real ability to score runs (2,0,1,5, and 2) and neither have the Rangers (0,1,0, 1,1,and 6).
