Related: About this forumI haven't been following baseball closely, so I ask, is Satan imploding?
Or just going through a rough patch? Also, I have trouble believing Houston is for real, but damn, one month until the All Star game and I think they're still at .650.

(17,305 posts)but they made me look a bit silly. Turns out I was only a little premature, or so it looks at this point anyway. They have a solid lineup. Keuchel has returned to form. McCullers has looked sharp (both guys are out with injuries but due back soon). Fiers has seemed to turn a corner over his past four or five starts.
Steady bats from Altuve, Correa and Springer. Veteran additions Beltran and McCann have contributed nicely. Josh Reddick has been another good acquisition. Marwin Gonzalez has emerged. Gattis still carries a heavy stick.
The bullpen has been at least average.
There's a lot to like!
