If you haven’t heard, the Astros are performing quite well to start the season. Like each team, there are a handful of players that have truly stood out.

A five-game winning streak and an overall record of 9-4 is a nice place to be in early April. Sure, it isn’t quite as nice as winning in September and October, but it still means something.

Anyway, the Astros can thank this strong start to multiple players. Between timely hits, strong pitching and good luck, Houston is having one of its best starts ever. But who are these players exactly?
