Dez and Josh talk about the Astros disastrous week

The Astros lead the league in runs scored and are second to last in runs allowed. Welcome to 2026. Beyond The Diamond breaks down a brutal 1-5 week that included a Rockies sweep and the Hunter Brown shoulder injury that could sideline the ace until the All-Star break.

We dig into why the bullpen construction isn't working, the defensive breakdowns that are inflating pitcher ERAs, the .350 BABIP against Astros pitching, and what it all means heading into a huge Seattle series. Plus our Week 2 AL Power Rankings and Christian Walker takes home Dog of the Week.
