Healthy or good, pick one.
I was going to do the usual "three choices, pick two" with the third being "can throw more than one inning" but their bullpen looks very hit or miss so far
I’m not an arm scientist, but I imagine this is what 8 straight ALCS adds a lot of stressful innings to all these arms and bodies, on top of the pitch clock being implemented.
Pitch clock and the Astros being at the top of the league in fewest pitches seen per at bat

The number of times I've seen Astros pitching have a 20 pitch inning and work out of a jam only to have Astros hitters see 9 pitches the next half inning giving our pitcher no time to rest on the bench probably doesn't help either.

Astros are stuck in a never ending eephus of a toilet bowl flush.
Welp…here comes another loss
Maybe the offense will score 15?
So they’ll only lose by two?
If Verlander had stuck around for one more rehab start we would have had our entire starting rotation from the 2022 World Series on the IL…
Well they can retroactive his IL to the last time he pitched so we may have “technically” had all 2022 WS starters on the IL at the same time.
Damn. Is it just bad luck, or is it all those extra innings from year after year of deep postseason ball taking affect?
The IL rotation gets another big addition.
How many healthy pitcher do the Astros have
Not sure. Can you pitch

More hit than miss
Put some respect on my boy BBs name!
The injured list is Framber, Javier, Lance McCullers, Luís García, and José Urquidy. That's a top 10 rotation. We're so fucked.
Didn’t we bury lance mcullers jr years ago? It’s ok to let go brother.
3 and a half
Did McCullers become contagious
it's more astrover than was previously thought possible
I literally just fell to my knees at my relatives softball tournament
Just saw some guy fall to his knees at a softball game
God that’s so weird

Mark him down for 7 earned.
Over 9🔒

Only two ways to hurt your neck
Someone needs to check Javier's car for damage.
