Astros pitcher Collin McHugh gave up five runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out four over 3 2/3 innings Tuesday against the Rangers.
McHugh has now given up 10 runs on 14 hits and five walks over his last two starts (nine innings), so it is hard to start the righty with confidence going forward.
His ERA now sits at 4.05 through 182 innings -- a far cry from the 2.73 mark he posted in 154.2 innings last season. McHugh's next start will come Sunday at home against the A's.
