Astros Pitching Crisis Deepens | Texas News
Description
The Astros clawed their way back into first place—again—after a sluggish start, but their pitching woes since June threaten to derail their playoff push. At the trade deadline, they shipped out struggling pitcher Spencer Arrighetti for Daulton Varsho, hoping to bolster offense. GM Dana Brown, under contract pressure, tried to spin returning pitchers Ronel Blanco and Hayden Wesneski as wins, but history shows it rarely works: past TJ rehabbers like Cristian Javier and Luis Garcia faded fast, and Blanco’s recent ERA proves the gamble again. With no new arms added, the team’s fate now rests on Hunter Brown and Peter Lambert delivering elite outings—or else Houston’s season could unravel.
