Catching up with the Astros' comings and goings and a bad call from Dusty.
The Astros swept the A's, but have dropped the first two of a four-game set in Chicago. It's a crazy portion of the league's condensed schedule with lots of necessary days off for rotation guys. Fortunately, the Astros continue to go with a six-man rotation now that Lance McCullers, Jr. is back, but fatigue has got to be taking its toll.
This is not the first time Baker's managerial decisions have been called into question, but when your team is 75-42, it's tough to argue the results. Plus, Chicago is in the thick of a division race and clearly wanted this one more. Still, putting a hard throwing guy like Montero in there after Urquidy was rolling with a range of off-speed and breaking pitches felt bad at the time. Turns out, it was.
