Finally, baseball is around the corner. But it won’t be the 162-game regular season we are all used to. Every team in the bigs is going to play a shortened 60-game schedule due to the COVID-19 pandemic and to all the time we’ve lost because of it.
That’s why it’s a good time to write about what we can expect in terms of statistics. At least for 2020, we won’t see 40 home runs, 120 runs batted in, or 200 hits. At Crawfish Boxes, we’ve decided to take a look back at the best Astros hitters in the first 60 games of any season.
