Stan Norfleet and Chris Gordy of Next Up react to breaking news that Houston Astros starting pitchers Cristian Javier and Jose Urquidy are both scheduled to have right elbow surgery and will be out for the remainder of this season and a part of next season. The Astros have dealt with injuries to their starting rotation all year, including Luis Garcia and Lance McCullers who are not expected to return until after the All-Star break. Will the Astros trade for another starter, and was it a mistake to not get more pitching insurance last offseason? The Astros won the second of a three-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday at Minute Maid Park. Yainer Diaz homered in back-to-back games to help the Astros win 8-5. Ronel Blanco will start on the mound Wednesday as the Astros attempt to complete the series sweep over the Cardinals and earn a winning record at home. Stan and Chris also review the latest comments from Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans, quarterback C.J. Stroud and wide receivers Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell as mandatory minicamp continues.
