The Astros a 4-3. But Lucky to be there.

Yes, the Astros are 4-3. Not bad for a road record.

But...

There has been a palpable and disappointing under-achievement by many key players, especially on the offensive side, that makes 4-3 seem rather lucky right now. Sure, it’s only seven games. And surely the many underperformers on the team right now will regress upward to normal performance levels.

We should expect that to happen.

But...

Right now almost the whole batting order is in a slump.

Jose Altuve......................125 BA

Kyle Tucker......................111 BA

Yordan Alvarez................143 BA

Aledmys Diaz..................150 BA

Yuli Gurriel.
