When It Rains, It Pours For The Astros
It is an understatement to say that the Astros haven’t had a strong start to their season. While the club currently possesses a 6-6 record, the overall results have been lackluster, with an offense ranked among the bottom ten in baseball by wRC+ and an inconsistent rotation. At least the bullpen has generally been good in a short sample.
Offense
.199 batting average (27th)
.282 on-base percentage (27th)
.355 slugging percentage (17th)
92 wRC+ (20th)
Rotation
4.45 ERA (19th)
3.90 FIP (15th)
8.5% K-BB% (25th)
A .500 record feels about right.
