## Resource

The Astros bullpen is carrying the team on its back—literally—after Spencer Arrighetti’s early exit due to a foot injury forced relievers to cover eight innings in a comeback win. Despite the rotation’s struggles, Houston’s bullpen has been elite, posting one of baseball’s best ERAs in the last 30 days. Stars like Okert, Abreu, and Hader are stepping up, but the constant deep-inning demands are taking a toll. With the trade deadline looming, the Astros’ top priority has shifted: they urgently need another reliable right-handed reliever to ease the load on their overworked arms—before the postseason push hits full throttle.
