Postseason Success For The Astros Rides On The Arms

Honestly, I don’t necessarily like to nitpick a 106-win club. While there were numerous eye rolls this season at Dusty Baker’s lineup configurations, it was ultimately a small price to pay. Thankfully, the Astros had enough talent throughout the roster to make any questionable lineup decisions a moot point across 162 games. Considering the small sample size of the postseason, you could make the right decision in most instances and still come away with a loss. I am spoiled, like many fans, by the level of success this organization has produced since 2017, despite some self-inflicted wounds along the way.
