Astros: Could McHugh and Peacock head back to pen in June?

McHugh had a really good start to the season for the Astros but is now currently sporting a 4.97 ERA. In 38 innings he has allowed 22 earned runs on 29 hits. Peacock, who also spent some time in the bullpen, has allowed 19 runs in 30 innings for a lofty 5.28 ERA.

Most experts have been predicting a June call up for the Astros #1 prospect, Forrest Whitley. However, in 2019, he has been struggling as well. After getting rocked for five runs in just two-thirds of an inning of work on Sunday, he now has an ERA of 10.
