Episode Notes

Jose Altuve's return from the injured list made the Astros' lineup whole again — and helped to kickstart a series win against the division rival A's. Tyler Stafford and The Athletic's Chandler Rome break down the series win, what Altuve's return means for a run of soft spot of their schedule and how they might address Mike Burrows' continued problems in the starting rotation.
