Matt Thomas and Ross Villarreal of The Matt Thomas Show react to the Houston Astros losing 7-9 to the Los Angeles Angels on Monday at Minute Maid Park. Framber Valdez started on the mound and set up the Astros with a 6-1 lead through four innings. However, the fifth inning brought trouble as Valdez gave up seven runs and sent 10 Angels to the plate. Valdez tied his career high for runs allowed with eight, and the Astros would lose 9-7, their largest blown lead of the season. Astros manager Joe Espada joins to discuss Valdez shaking off catcher Yainer Diaz, and starting pitcher Spencer Arrighetti also joins to talk about playing for the Astros as a Houston product. Matt and Ross preview Chas McCormick's return off the injured list, comment on ESPN's east coast bias, review the Texans beginning OTAs, give their latest "Gut Feelings" and more.
