HR 1 – Astros Bullpen Questions, Caserio Speaks & QOTD

ITL reacts to the return of the Houston Astros closer situation and asks a simple question: what good is having your closer back if you can’t get the game to him? The guys debate whether Houston’s biggest issues now lie before the ninth inning and discuss the roster shuffling that may be needed to stabilize the bullpen. ITL focuses on two players the Astros counted on heavily this season and whether their struggles are forcing the organization to make difficult decisions moving forward. Then the attention shifts to the Houston Texans after Nick Caserio joined P&P earlier in the morning. ITL breaks down Caserio’s comments, what stood out most, and whether he revealed anything meaningful about Houston’s roster, expectations, or long-term plans. The hour wraps with today's QOTD: Which athletes suddenly losing it was more sad than shocking?
