The Astros land in KC officially red hot after 8 wins in a row, starting with one over the M’s and then two loud sweeps of the Rangers and Oakland. The offense and pitching have been firing on all cylinders consistently during that stretch, the first that we’ve seen since Houston charged out of the gate to start 2018. While the usual suspects have been contributing, the Astros’ hero of the month has been Evan Gattis. After a putrid start to his year, he caught fire on May 12th and never looked back. Slashing .300/.353/.744 since then, he’s crushed 12 homers and driven in 34 RBIs.
