Brian McTaggart, Astros beat reporter for MLB.com, joins Matt Thomas on the Astros On-Deck Show ahead of the final game of a three-game road series against the Chicago Cubs. The Astros extended their losing streak to four games following 4-3 loss Wednesday, bringing their record to 7-18 on the season. "There's definitely frustration in the clubhouse," McTaggart said. In Tuesday's loss against the Cubs, J.P. France gave up five runs in the first inning, and in Wednesday's loss, Spencer Arrighetti gave up four runs in the first inning. "They can't claw out of those holes." McTaggart also discusses manager Joe Espada's lineup changes, Jon Singleton and Jose Abreu sharing opportunities at first base and Framber Valdez returning to the mound in Mexico City.
