You know, if Taillon came out and got shelled, Verlander shoved, and we lost like 5-0 like I expected, I could deal with it. But Verlander didn’t have his best stuff, Taillon did his job, and we pissed away a winnable game with bad offense and bad bullpen decisions. Frustrating.

The Astros lost Cole, Correa, Springer, and two years of Justin Verlander. It didn’t matter. They extended Altuve, Bregman, Alvarez, and McCullers. They built an elite pitching staff. They gave their top prospects opportunities. That’s what a winning franchise looks like.
