Moving on from their first series on the road against the Athletics, the Astros now travel up to Coors Field in Colorado to take on the Rockies for their next three-game stretch. Looking to pull out the series opener leading 3-0, the Stros fall apart in the fifth with 8 runs scored from 7 hits given, putting the Rockies in front and concluding the inning 8-3. Attempting to rally back but falling short, the Rockies pull out the opener with a final score of 9-7. Evaluating the Astros' last two games in their series loss against the Athletics and yesterday's opener with Ryan Weiss on the mound, Dan and Cole take a moment to look at Houston's initial 10-game stretch opening the season and ask how the Astros can shake off losses like this moving forward.

Coming out of baseball's second weekend, most MLB teams have figured out who they are as a club. Centering around the Astros, Houston has an offense good enough to win a World Series, but a pitching staff struggling to find his control. Looking to tee off their 3-game series against the Rockies starting Monday evening, Steve Sparks from Astros Radio joins Dan and Cole to look back on the Astros road series loss against the Athletics, the role of Bryan Abreu and what to expect from the roatation now with Hunter Brown headed to the IL.

Wrapping up their homestand here at Daikin yesterday, the Astros broke out the brooms as they gained their first series sweep of the season over the Boston Red Sox, taking all 3 games in dominating fashion. Scoring a combined total of 17 runs between Game 1 and 2, followed by Carlos Correa's 3-run blast in the bottom of the 5th to cushion the lead, puts the Astros at a combined total of 23 runs over their 3-game span here at home. With the day off now, 7 games into the season and sitting atop the AL West Division at 5-1, Dan and Cole review the Astros two opening homestands and what they must sustain going on the road to Sutter Health Park to take on the Athletics.

With Spring Training behind us and the season underway now, teams across both the American and National Leagues begin battling away for their division's rankings. Focusing on Houston, the Astros appear primed and ready, opening the season taking 2 of the 4 games from the Angels, followed by hopes of gaining the sweep over the Red Sox later today. Looking back on their time in West Palm to now, Astros GM Dana Brown joins Dan and Cole reflecting on the Astros offseason, followed by what the team is showing currently production-wise that has the organization rolling in the right direction to make it back to the postseason.
