Sweep the Guardians, Rays sweep the Rangers, who says no?!
[The Astros trail the Rangers by five games in the American League West. They have never been five games back in the division at any point during the past five 162-game seasons (2017, 18, 19, 21, 22).](https://twitter.com/Chandler_Rome/status/1667007069453516800?cxt=HHwWgIC8zZ6Gs6IuAAAA)
Dusty didn’t sound too optimistic when talking about Yordan yesterday.
My guess is a grade 2 strain, which usually means out for a few weeks.
Don’t have much faith tbh
I’ll be there. Gonna get that dub.

* When you think an Astro is about to hit a home run, comment ‘HRC [Astro]’
* If you get it right, you get a point and another go! Otherwise, wait until tomorrow.
* I’ll monitor successful picks and publish the leaderboard in the GDT before first pitch every day. Let me know if you think I’ve missed you, or if you have any other questions.
I’m happy to count HRCs on the live game chat on [Discord](https://discord.gg/astros) as well, but please stick to the one HRC per game rule regardless of platform (if your username on there isn’t the same as on Reddit I might have to PM you to get it).
