The last time he pitched, I opined that the Astros need to savor every win they get when Spencer Arighetti pitches, because with his 7+ ERA, you can almost always pencil in a loss.
I’m going to have to re-think after today’s Astros victory against the NL Central’s leading team. He just missed a quality start, and with a little more help from the bullpen, he would have gotten there.
But a win is a win, and it helps when Kyle Tucker hits two homers, and your team provides nine runs of run support.
Although the Brewers jumped to an early 1-0 lead in the first inning off Arrighetti, the Astros answered with quadruple vengeance in the bottom of the first.
