The Houston Astros are still a 97.7% change to go to the playoffs from FanGraphs, but man was this a demoralizing series sweep. Especially after the heights of sweeping the Royals. I appreciate this team keeping me humble. In this episode we talk about the series, Joe Espada’s ejection, Kyle Tucker’s return set for tomorrow?, and an appearance from Joe Mixon as we talk Texans for a bit.

Don’t tell Paul Rudd, but the Astros are putting some work in against the Kansas City Royals. After three close and hard fought games, the Astros have emerged victorious and hoping to sweep a team that has playoffs written all over them. We recap today’s game and the walk-off win yesterday, JP3, defense, the goat: Jose Altuve, Yuli Gurriel!, Framber flirting with a no-no, Yusei dominance, speculate on September call-ups, and more on this episode of the Space Cadet Sports Podcast!

Woo-wee, it’s getting hot in here, y’all! The Astros have been playing some playoff bound teams lately and it’s been giving me playoff vibes. The games have felt big, the Astros (and Manager Joe Espada) are pulling out all of the stops, the AL West still isn’t won and the Astros are trying to create some distance. The dog days of summer are clearly ending and we are getting to the playoff push of September. Things are starting to get real. So it’s a good thing the Astros are finding ways to win games. We recap the game, talk about our new additions and mention the roster casualties that make room for the new names. We also get into a Bryan Abreu discussion as he is the target of many fans ire after blowing his 5th save of the season. Let’s get to it!

In what was shaping up to be a bummer of a series for Astros fans, the Astros turned the page and brought a fired up offense and pitching performance into the last game against Philly to avoid a sweep. Paul recaps the series, speaks about some good performers and explains why if Justin Verlander is Optimus Prime, then he is Optimist Prime about this Houston Astros team. We then look ahead to the next series and what is happening with your Houston Astros. And yes, we did get the memo that football is right around the corner. Fret not, football heads. The end of the podcast brings the bonus of the Texans 53-man roster and talk about roster construction and the hopes of the team going forward.

Well, the Astros didn’t lose a series but they also didn’t win one either. So why is Paul optimistic? We’ll get into the recap of the series and Space Cadet’s thoughts on it and we look ahead to the series coming up against Philly. Of course, it wouldn’t be a proper Astros podcast without talking about injuries and roster moves; so we do that too! Let’s keep seeing some competitive baseball. Mauricio Dubón would run through a wall for the Astros, would you?

The Astros win a prime time game against the Orioles in a lopsided game. Besting the Orioles 6-0, the Astros are remindimg the league that they are still the Astros. However, the Astros are once again looking at injury concerns and potential roster moves to keep this high-turnover roster competition with the right mix of players needed. What’s going on with Bregman? Where did Ben Gamel come from? Do Astros fans owe the ex-manager of the Mariners a huge thanks for his Servais? All of that and more on this episode of the pod.

You have to tip your cap to the Boston Red Sox relief pitchers because they made the Astros work and got the better of them in a series where you think the offense would have found at least one more opportunity to explode. The ‘Stros drop a series for the first time in a bit and we’re hoping this isn’t a fall back to Earth as much as it is a shake-it-off opportunity. In this episode of the pod, Paul recaps the Astros/Red Sox series, looks in on the AL West race, talks about Joe Espada’s lineups, ponders upcoming roster moves and looks ahead to the series against the Baltimore Orioles. That and more on this ep!
