I’m not going to lie, the Astros have had a rough first week of games. After starting things off on the right foot, hitting three home runs off the reigning Cy Young winner in Game 1, things rapidly deteriorated, with the Astros going 1-5 in that time.
The pitching has largely held up their end of the bargain, leading the league in FIP at 2.41. The hitting has basically vanished since that Opening Day outburst, though, as they sit second to last in runs per game at 2.14, and only 10 runs have come in last six games.
