What goes up, must come down.
And what goes down, must come up.
After the Astros sweep in LA, and hearing about the Cleveland 10-game losing streak coming into Houston, I had a bad feeling about it.
The Guardians are way better than that and were due to come up, and let’s face it, the current Quad-A version of the walking-wounded Astros have been playing way above their pay grade.
And although the Astros showed their usual grit, coming from way behind to bring this one into extra innings, when two of the three All-Stars on the team, starter Hunter Brown and closer Josh Hader, have their worst games of the season, it’s all but over for a team whose roster otherwise looks like a Spring Training split-squad game.
