ANAHEIM, Calif. — Success for the Houston Astros is not a playoff appearance, or a season barely above .500. By Houston's standards, a solid year means making a deep postseason run (at the bare minimum).
And the Astros will have to get back on track even as they're missing stars like Lance McCullers Jr. and Jose Altuve to injury.
Other notable names on Houston’s long injury list include star outfielder Yordan Alvarez and right-handed pitchers Jose Urquidy and Luis Garcia. Left-handed ace Framber Valdez started on the mound for Houston on Saturday in Anaheim. Although he tied his career high of 13 strikeouts, Valdez left the game in the seventh inning with a trainer. Astros manager Dusty Baker said postgame that Valdez has a left calf injury. Shortstop Jeremy Pena also suffered a right hamstring cramp, which led to Kessinger entering the game late.
The Astros weren’t able to secure the weekend series against the Angels on Saturday night, multiple leads in brutal fashion.are the first MLB team to face a 6+ run deficit in the 7th inning or later, erase that deficit, then fall behind again by 3+ runs and yet still win the game since the Phillies did so against the Pirates on September 16, 1930.
