Right-hander Alec Asher certainly has some recent history to draw from ahead of his starting assignment Friday against the Boston Red Sox, but it won’t be from last weekend.
Asher's assessment of the two-inning outing Sunday in Houston won’t have much carryover to Friday’s assignment against the Boston Red Sox.
“You try to take what you can from it,” he said. “I fell behind on a lot of hitters, and I just had to give in. It happens. You just try not to take your bad outings too serious, and go from there.”
Asher allowed six runs on six hits in those two innings in the loss to the Astros.
