Join Eric Huysman and Brett Chancey for the Locked On Astros podcast as the Astros drop two of 3 versus the Orioles. It wasn't that they lost; it's how they lost those games. The one game they won was based on a strong showing by Jason Alexander. Yordan Alvarez should be returning to game action with the Hooks soon. Cristian Javier gave us a scare today.

HOUSTON ASTROS struggle as injuries mount. Can they maintain their lead in the AL West?

They break down the Astros' recent woes, including shutout losses to the Baltimore Orioles and a depleted roster. The hosts analyze Christian Javier's early exit, Josh Hader's season-ending injury, and Yordan Alvarez's potential return. They explore lineup concerns, bullpen struggles, and debate potential coaching changes.

Please tune in for expert insights on how the Astros can overcome their slump and solidify their playoff position.
