7 years agoHouston Astros starter Dallas Keuchel will be looking for a bit of revenge when he takes the mound against the A's Monday night. Keuchel was lit up for three home runs (six runs total) April 27 against Oakland in easily his worst start of the season. Keuchel has been befallen with some bad luck at times this season and leads the team in the dubious category of losses with five. Keuchel's biggest issue thus far has been giving up the long ball this season. He has allowed a home run in each of his last four starts and seven over his last 28 innings pitched. Keuchel simply has not come out of the gates this season as sharp as he was last season, but he still has the talent to put up elite numbers as a starter. The left-hander has the pedigree of past performance that should earn him some patience for the time being.--Joey C - RotoBaller
