The Astros have today off, with a nine-game road trip beginning Friday in Seattle. The Houston nine is hoping its offense makes the trip after a rough conclusion to a six-game homestand with a second consecutive loss to the Giants on Wednesday. Jose Altuve, the catalyst working his way back from injury, says the next two weeks will be key in his rehab. We also have updates on Michael Brantley's and Chas McCormick's rehab assignments. A week ago at the NFL draft, the Texans made the biggest splash with their trade up to get edge rusher Will Anderson Jr. at No. 3. Did they overpay in the deal? Some former NFL front-office types chime in. Live in-game interviews, locker room access and coaches wearing microphones? All of that could be coming to Big 12 football telecasts as new commissioner Brett Yormark pursues an innovative agenda for the league. Westfield graduate Keonte Coburn's decision to come back to Texas for another season pays off with an opportunity to play for the reigning Super Bowl champion Chiefs. The Dash get back into the win column with a shutout of Chicago in NWSL Challenge Cup action. Stat of the day: 5. Players in baseball's modern era (since 1900) with 500 hits as a batter and 500 strikeouts as a pitcher. Shohei Ohtani on Wednesday joined Smoky Joe Wood, Red Ruffing, Walter Johnson and Babe Ruth in that exclusive club. |
