HR 1 – Astros Keep Winning, CJ Contract Talk & QOTD

ITL reacts after another Houston Astros victory and asks the question many Houston fans have been avoiding: are you finally buying into what this team is doing? The guys debate whether the recent winning stretch is simply a hot streak or evidence that the Astros have legitimately turned a corner. ITL discusses the continued pitching success, improved energy around the club, and whether there are enough signs beyond Yordan Alvarez to believe Houston could make things very interesting down the stretch. Then the focus shifts to the Houston Texans after C. J. Stroud addressed his contract situation while speaking to the media. The guys debate whether fans and media are reading too much into his comments or if there is something worth paying attention to as Houston’s franchise quarterback continues to grow in stature. The hour wraps with today’s QOTD: If you could take a celebrity bro trip or road trip with anyone, who would it be?
