## Resource

The managerial carousel is already spinning, but Astros GM Dana Brown gave a vote of confidence to embattled manager Joe Espada amid Houston's 11-18 start. Tyler Stafford and The Athletic's Chandler Rome discuss Espada's status and Brown's comments before analyzing the team's series loss against the Yankees — including strong starts from Spencer Arrighetti and Mike Burrows along with a walk-filled showing from the bullpen.
