Lefty Tarik Skubal is arguably the best pitcher in baseball dating back to the end of last season. He has a 1.9 ERA through 7 starts this year with a .175 opponent BA and .77 WHIP. He's made 2 career starts against Houston, once in 2021 and another in 2022. He allowed a combined 3 runs across 13 innings pitched and that was before he turned into an Ace. Houston's most dangerous hitters are Left-Handed and Skubal's allowed just 3 hits to lefties this year with a 2.67 GO/AO ratio. He allowed just 5 hits to lefties in all of 2023 (15 starts). He's backed by one of the best bullpens in baseball and the top arms are ready. Joey Wentz (.61 ERA, 9G) and Alex Lange (.64 ERA, 16G) are both working on 2 days rest and Closer Jason Foley (9/10 SVO) is also available.
