Well, That Was A Letdown; Mariners Blank Astros 5-0

I mostly stay in my lane about the Astros, writing posts about things that catch my interest or draw my ire. The same applies to game recaps. There were typically more positive angles to write about than negatives in past seasons. If that was the tradeoff for two World Series titles, four pennants, and seven consecutive ALCS appearances, well, so be it. You didn’t have to twist my arm too much in that case. But with this season’s terrible start, it isn’t hard to find a negative or five to gravitate toward on a given day. Plenty of this club’s current woes are self-inflicted, at least to some degree.
