A 13-game stretch starts on Friday that could define the Astros' season. Seven of them are against divisional opponents and — at 15-23 — the Astros can't afford to fall further behind. Former Houston outfielder Josh Reddick joins Tyler Stafford and The Athletic's Chandler Rome to discuss how critical the stretch will be, the ways in which the Astros can mitigate Carlos Correa's absence, Houston's catching situation without Yainer Diaz and how morale inside an injury-ravaged clubhouse can improve.
