Another Week, Another Round-Up

Two more pieces this week. First up, I got to recap Tuesday's game, which was a lot of fun as the patchwork lineup not only held together, but nearly scored in the double-digits. Plus, Garrett Stubbs made his debut pretty memorable. Even if tonight's game was rougher, it's promising to see that the B-squad still have the potential to break out.

And here's the newer piece, where I previewed the rest of the season for both the Astros and their nearest division rivals, the A's, as well as the added importance it gives to this weekend's series in Oakland. Go check out the full thing, but the preview is that even with large number of injuries hitting them, the Astros are still in pretty good position right now. And if things go well for them this weekend, the A's might have missed their last good shot to catch them.

Weekly Crawfish Boxes Links

Another week, another pair of articles from me over at The Crawfish Boxes. First, there's tonight's game recap, which was a sort of lopsided affair where Lucas Giolito shut down the Astros' lineup. 

Earlier this week, I took a look at whether or not Madison Bumgarner could be a fit for Houston, going off of the news that they were on his no-trade list (which is stuffed full of contending teams, so it doesn't rule them out at all).

Another week, another game recap! Being on a winning streak is fun!

And here's a new piece comparing the strength of the remaining schedules for the AL West.

Back to A Weekly Round-Up!

Two articles to link to this week! I did a recap for tonight's Astros game against the Rangers, which was a fun one (largely thanks to Josh Reddick's amazing, game-saving home run robbery).

Earlier this week, I looked at what's different for Gerrit Cole between this year and 2018.

I have apparently been forgetting to update here when I write at other places, so here's a big post covering the last two weeks.

First, here's my newest piece over at The Crawfish Boxes comparing the start of the Astros' season to how they started the 2018 season. Spoiler alert: all in all, it's really encouraging!

Next, here's my feature from last week about how the Astros should hold off from cutting Tyler White and Tony Kemp (for now) to call another player up.

There are also a couple of recaps from against the Twins. Here's a home game win from last week, and here's an away game loss from this week.

And lastly, in non-baseball writing, here's my review of indie game Alwa's Awakening over at Out of Left Field!
