There was no way to imagine that after the first month of the MLB calendar, the Houston Astros would be in last place in their division, after one of the worst starts to the season in their history.
But that’s the situation. The sidereals stopped a streak of 5 losses in Mexico, but they are still in the middle of a worrying situation and although they will begin to see the return of some of their injured figures, it is inevitable that they will go to the Major League market if they want to return to the path of victory.
Before the trade deadline, the management headed by Dana Brown is forced to make some moves that will allow them to reinforce the pitching staff. And if José Abreu cannot recover, they must also consider acquiring a first baseman.
The Astros’ starting rotation was decimated by injuries, even before Opening Day. They have already recovered Justin Verlander and the plan is for Framber Valdez to be activated in the series in Mexico, but José Urquidy, Lance McCullers Jr. and Luis García are still out of action and can no longer wait, as they need help immediately. The Angels will surely be open to trading some players and one of them could be left-hander Tyler Anderson, 34 years old and with a 1.78 ERA in 5 starts.
