## Resource

The Astros finished an underwhelming first-half 47-51, but still with a real chance to make the postseason within a weak American League. Former Astros outfielder Josh Reddick joins The Athletic's Chandler Rome to grade the team's offense, pitching staff and management on their first-half performance. Reddick then remembers his many battles with retiring Astros legend Justin Verlander before calling into question one of MLB's decisions during the Home Run Derby.  🌶️ Use code foul50off to get 50% off and free daily greens per box, with new subscription only, while supplies last at Factormeals.com/foul50off See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
