Latest news and updates about the Astros
Good morning! As Matt lays out today, there is a very slight possibility that the Red Sox fall to the third Wild Card slot, thus avoiding the first round Yankees matchup that has seemed all but inevitable for weeks now. Instead of Yankee Stadium, the Sox would head out west to face either the Rangers […]
Infielder Nasim Nunez set the Nationals’ single-season record with his 48th stolen base on Wednesday. He didn’t waste any time adding to his mark, taking third base during the same at-bat. As Brian McTaggart of MLB.com pointed out, Nunez’s 49 steals are one more than the entire Astros team. 1. Rice, Alonso tighten AL HR […]
Morning, all! The Rangers have optioned Winston Santos and recalled right handed pitcher Gavin Collyer for the final, probably futile, push for the playoffs.

It’s almost the end of the season, and while the Braves are safe from the mild insanity, it doesn’t mean it can’t take hold elsewhere. In the AL West, or really the AL Texas division at this point, both the Rangers and Astros are two games under .500 and tied atop the division. The loser probably won’t make the final AL Wild Card spot. (The Astros hold the tiebreaker.) It’d be funny if both teams lost out, leading to probably the worst team, record-wise, to ever receive a playoff spot in MLB. ...

SEATTLE — And so it all comes down to this. Through 158 games, nobody has gained much of an edge in the AL West race. Indeed, thanks to the Astros’ 6-5 loss in extra innings to the Mariners on Wednesday, nobody in the division will even enter the final weekend at .500. Houston and Texas both go into their final four games at 78-80, though the Astros own the tiebreaker thanks to winning the season series. At best, whoever wins the AL West will do so with a record of 82-80, matching the 2005 Pad...
