Dusty makes it to 2,000 career wins.
While the Astros continue to muddle around .500, trying to get healthy and get off their sluggish start at the plate, there is plenty happening in and around the ballclub. The win over division rival Seattle on Monday was a good start at turning things around. Jeremy Peña continues to shine both with his glove and bat. His two-run homer was the nail in the Mariners coffin that started with Jake Odorizzi.
Odorizzi had been less than stellar, but hurled a gem for the 3-0 win at Minute Maid. Let's see more of that before we start dusting off the Cy Young award. Two more at home with the M's before a weekend set with the scuffling Detroit Tigers — former manager A.J. Hinch will be back in the house, hopefully not dominating his old team like he did early in the season last year.
