In a season that could easily be called bipolar, the Rockets rebounded from 15 straight losses right into a 7-game winning streak (not to mention a competitive showing against the defending champs). ESPN Houston's Charlie Pallilo breaks down what ingredients have led to this Rocket resurgence.
In this episode, we dive into what's really going on with the Houston Astros' offense this season. The bats have gone cold, the vibes feel off, and fans aren’t feeling the same confidence we’ve had in recent years.
We break down the Astros’ offensive struggles, including Jose Altuve’s slump, the concern around Yordan Alvarez landing on the IL, and the ongoing controversy with Ronel Blanco’s starts.
Even with Joe Espada promising an offensive explosion, the results just haven’t shown up.
