Should we send Lance McCullers a fruit basket or something for fixing Mike Fiers? Following a chat about curveballs not too long ago, Fiers has transformed himself back into a quality starting pitcher. The Astros are likely thrilled with this development when you consider the rotation’s injury issues the past few weeks. Maybe they should send McCullers a fruit basket?
Enough about fruit baskets for now. The Astros have just won their league-leading 44th game of the season. They have played in just 63 games so this is worth boasting about. So, that’s something good.
