It’s hard to say what was the worst thing about this game.
Was it that the Astros are squandering their AL West championship chances, and even their playoff chances, by losing a series to a team with the second-worst record in MLB?
Or is it that, even if the Astros do make the playoffs, they have to send Justin Verlander out as the second guy in the rotation, and after that...
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
It seems like the Justin Verlander whom we know and love, only shows up every other game. In his last start against Arlington, he outdueled fellow future HOFer Max Scherzer for a convincing win.
