Daikin Disaster

Astros swept and dominated by Athletics

I think I just mentioned how wild baseball is, especially this season and what just happened at Daikin Park may be the topper.

Of course, there are 56 games to go…in the regular season.

Expected Wins, Should Be Standings and Projected Standings

The Astros could use a win. Or two.

Last time out we mentioned the hard-charging Rangers.

Well, well, well.

If the wins and losses and run differential continue at the current rate, we would expect the final AL West Standings to look like this:

Rando Stats of the Day

The Astros slashed .187/.255/.268 with a .237 wOBA,48 wRC+ and hit 1 home run in the Athletics series.

For that same series, the pitching staff recorded a 7.25 ERA and allowed 11 home runs in 36 innings pitched.

In 99 July plate appearances Cam Smith is slashing .209/.273/.275 with a .248 wOBA and 56 wRC+.

Bryan King has not allowed an earned run over 8 July appearances covering 9.1 innings, while striking out 9, walking 0 and earning his first MLB save.

As always, thanks for reading!
