Brad Peacock: Pride (Two Poems)
Look DeeperFrom outside appearances,I may be a middle-aged man nowwith gray in my beard, hair receding like an ocean tideand crows’ feet permanently imprinted on the corners of my eyes,each line like a rolodex full of stories— the good, the bad; the joy, the sad.But dig a little deeper under the surface, and you will find a little boy who will always live inside the walls of this aging body,a…

Si la temporada de la MLB 2020 se cancela, hay cinco jugadores de los Astros de Houston que podrían dejar el equipo para 2021.

Pero también están estos otros dos jugadores que podrían haber jugado su último partido como Astros: Yuli Gurriel y Brad Peacock.

OAKLAND, Calif | Verlander 200th W, Astros 5 HRs, top A's 9-4 to avoid sweep

OAKLAND, Calif | Verlander 200th W, Astros 5 HRs, top A's 9-4 to avoid sweep
OAKLAND, Calif — Justin Verlander pitched just well enough to earn his 200th career win and the Houston Astros hit five home runs, beating the Oakland Athletics 9-4 Sunday to avoid a sweep and retake sole possession of the AL West lead.
The surging A’s had won the first two games at the Coliseum to tie shaky Houston atop the division. But Yuli Gurriel hit a three-run homer in the third inning and Evan Gattis, Alex Bergman, Marwin Gonzalez and Martin Maldonado later homered for the defending World Series champions. Maldonado also tripled and doubled.
Verlander (12-8), who has not given up more than four runs in any of his 20 career games against the A’s, entered the day with a major league-leading 1.74 ERA on the road. Matt Chapman and Khris Davis hit solo homers off Verlander in the first inning, and Davis added his 36th homer, a two-run drive, in the third that made it 4-all. Gattis put the Astros ahead for good in the fourth with his 24th home run.
Verlander gave up four runs on seven hits over 5 1/3 innings. He walked one and struck out six but gave up three home runs and has allowed 25 this season. He became the 114th pitcher with at least 200 career wins.
Brad Peacock took over for Verlander in the sixth, with two runners on and one out. He struck out Stephen Piscotty on a full count, walked Marcus Semien and got Mark Canha swinging on a 2-2 pitch. Four Houston relievers shut down the A’s on one hit over 3 2/3 innings.
The Astros won for the second time in nine game. The Athletics had won 13 of their past 16 games to draw even with Houston.
After allowing six runs in three previous August starts combined, Sean Manaea (11-9) gave up six in four-plus innings against the Astros.
TRAINER’S ROOM Astros: 2B Jose Altuve (right knee) began a rehab assignment Sunday for Triple-A Fresno at Tacoma, going 1 for 3 with a strikeout and hit by pitch . . . C Brian McCann (right knee) went 0 for 3 and caught six innings on Saturday night for the Grizzlies.
UP NEXT Astros: RHP Gerrit Cole (11-5, 2.71) starts for Houston at Seattle on Monday night.
Athletics: RHP Mike Fiers (8-6, 3.38) takes the mound against Texas Monday night.

“On Bzdek” Bullpen Briefing: A Fresh Start for Holland, Plus Other RP Updates
Things have quieted down a bit this week as the non-waiver trade deadline has passed. There were a couple of injuries in DC and Queens that I will discuss, as well as an update on the status of the White Sox pen which is still searching for a closer after Joakin Soria was traded two weeks ago. I also discuss the status of the Houston pen with Osuna’s return from suspension, and briefly touch on…

“On Bzdek” Bullpen Briefing: LAA Back in Flux, Giles Unravels, One Miami RP to Keep an Eye On, Plus Other RP News
This week the Angels return to the bullpen briefing, followed by some other familiar bullpens in Houston, St. Louis, and Milwaukee. I’ll also touch on the Rays’ pen, which hasn’t been all that good this season, as well as one pitcher to keep an eye on down in Miami. As always, I’ll finish with the three stars of the week.
