The Sean Salisbury Show

Concluding their three game series yesterday early in the afternoon the Astros looked to be closing out their series against the Mariners with a victory, but fell short in the final stretch of the game with things falling apart late in the eighth and ninth inning. With a huge late turnaround, the Mariners pull out the game victory along with the series win over the Astros with a final score of 7-6 following a series final of 1-2 for the Astros. Assessing how things fell apart late in the eighth inning as the Mariners continue and rally on back throughout the ninth for the win, Sean and Dan hash out a few possibilities as to what the Astros could have done differently and what needs to be done in such dire situations moving forward, that would have resulted in another series win for the club, following the loss gained yesterday afternoon.

Coming out of a series against the Minnesota Twins recently in which the Astros were victorious following a 2-1 series win, the Astros seem to roll on despite an early series setback against the Giants resulting in a 0-3 series final. Moving along, the Astros now take on the Seattle Mariners tipping off their three game series Monday in which Spencer Arrighetti was set to start. Sadly breaking his right thumb during pregame, the Astros fall behind 4-3 late in Game 1 setting the series at 0-1. Setting the series even yesterday now 1-1 thanks to Ryan Gusto, Astros GM Dana Brown joins the show along with a few updates regarding Arrighetti's status, the teams current struggles, and what to particularly look for as we're still a bit early-on here in the 2025 season.

With the season rolling on following the Astros series win over the San Francisco Giants, the Astros tipped off their series against the Seattle Mariners yesterday evening. Looking to kickoff the series with a win, the Astros fall short in an upsetting fashion following a comeback win by the Mariners with a final score of 4-3. Leading up to the first pitch of the night and looking to get in the swing of things before the game begins, Astros pitcher Spencer Arrighetti scratches his start yesterday against the Mariners pitcher Logan Gilbert. Breaking his right thumb from a line drive hit from a fellow Mariners player during the pregame, Arrighetti looks to be inactive for the weeks to come following a wild pregame debacle. Assessing the Astros struggles in regards to getting runners to score when on base amongst other issues, how long can we expect Spencer Arrighetti to be inactive for?
