Chandler Rome Identifies Major Keys to Astros' Success Going Forward

Friday on The A-Team, Chandler Rome of The Athletic joined Adam Clanton and Adam Wexler to discuss what the Astros need to do to build on the momentum from their last two series victories.Rome noted that Tatsuya Imai must bounce back after a disappointing recent start, while the bottom of Houston's batting order needs to become more productive.Too often, the Astros have relied on the top of the lineup, Jeremy Peña, Yordan Alvarez, Christian Walker, and Isaac Paredes, to carry the offense.Looking ahead, Rome pointed to Yainer Diaz and Cam Smith as two players who could play pivotal roles in the Astros' continued success.
