The Astros dropped a frustrating series to the Nationals, and the deeper numbers show why: the starting pitching simply wasn’t good enough. We break down Mike Burrows’ rough opener, Tatsuya Imai’s shortened outing, and Spencer Arrighetti’s command collapse — including the alarming curveball numbers that Washington exposed.

We also look at where the offense failed in the losses, why scoring 19 runs still wasn’t enough to win the series, and what Houston has to clean up before heading into Arlington.

Plus, we preview the Rangers, who are heating up at the right time, and discuss what this rivalry series could mean for the Astros’ AL West hopes and trade deadline direction.
