If we make till October

Composition of Projections:

2023 Actuals: 83.9%

Preseason Projections: 16.1%

Season Projections

After a great August at the plate, the Astros start September with 4 hits.

Nice innings from Maton and Stanek, plus a bonus from Kuhnel after a shaky start.

Bullpen Usage

Not Verlander’s best night, but even when that’s the case he managed 6 innings, saving an arm or two and that along with Thursdays off and expanded rosters is a good thing for the Astros bullpen.

Today’s Pitching Matchup

I would expect some runs tonight, perhaps from both sides.

Projected Standings

All three AL West contenders lost Friday and the projections remain incredibly close.
