Astros News
The Houston Astros are now languishing at a miserable 11-19 after their latest setback, a 3-5 loss to the Baltimore Orioles, leaving them with the worst record in the American League. With a dismal run differential of -6 over the last week, the team's struggles are evident and demands for change are growing louder, particularly regarding Cam Smith, who has not lived up to expectations. Meanwhile, Tatsuya Imai's shaky rehab outing has led to fears of a monumental mistake in his acquisition. To compound the woes, Wednesday's scheduled game was postponed, pushing a doubleheader into an already tense situation. On the brighter side, Yordan Alvarez continues to shine with a .355 average, but individual performances cannot mask the mounting frustrations of fans as the Astros grapple with a grave start to the season.
