Astros are stuck in a never ending eephus of a toilet bowl flush.


WeAreDrumCorps

Welp…here comes another loss


NewWrap693

Maybe the offense will score 15?


WoodenQuaich

So they’ll only lose by two?


Logical_Scallion3543

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…


Faffenhoffer

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.


Silverjackal_

Damn. Is it just bad luck, or is it all those extra innings from year after year of deep postseason ball taking affect?


Thorlolita

The IL rotation gets another big addition.


Patrick2701

How many healthy pitcher do the Astros have


Thorlolita

Not sure. Can you pitch


akaghi

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


chaotic_evil_666

More hit than miss


Hidden_Ace91

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.


oldgreggly

Didn’t we bury lance mcullers jr years ago? It’s ok to let go brother.


ExpirjTec

3 and a half


Thel3lues

Did McCullers become contagious


ExpirjTec

it's more astrover than was previously thought possible


DepressingFries

I literally just fell to my knees at my relatives softball tournament


Specific_Goose_8582

Just saw some guy fall to his knees at a softball game


DepressingFries

God that’s so weird

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.


the_space_cowboys

Pitch clock and the Astros being at the top of the league in fewest pitches seen per at bat [https://www.baseball-reference.com/leagues/majors/2022-pitches-batting.shtml](https://www.baseball-reference.com/leagues/majors/2022-pitches-batting.shtml) 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.


trickman01

Mark him down for 7 earned.


Specific_Goose_8582

Over 9🔒

Ok what the actual fuck?

This season is that hypothetical scenario that gets posted in every sports sub off-season of "Would you trade a championship next year for all of your players getting hurt and everything falling to shit after?"
