You can’t blame the starting pitchers for the Houston Astros’ slow start in 2013

The Houston Astros have gotten excellent work out of their starting rotation so far this year and it was against the Rangers, who are a pretty darn good hitting baseball team.  Bud Norris (1-0, 3.18 ERA and 1.41 WHIP), Philip Humber (0-1, 1.59 ERA and 1.24 WHIP), Lucas Harrell (0-1, 1.50 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP) and Erik Bedard (0-0, 1 save, a 0.00 ERA and a 0.30 WHIP) have a combined record of 1-2 with 1 save, a 1.74 ERA and a 1.16 WHIP so far his year.  The rest of the pitching staff is 0-0 with a 12.79 ERA and a 2.05 WHIP!  The Astros are also having trouble scoring runs as they have been shut out two games in a row now.  The are only hitting .172 with a .464 OPS and they have scored 8 runs this year.  They have also whiffed 43 times against only 4 walks in 93 ABs so far this year.  It’s going to be a long, long baseball season in Houston in 2013.
