Astros’ little second baseman should grow up
Share: Jose Altuve is one of the best baseball players in the world. As team captain he should have been able to do more to prevent his teammates from cheating. Despite evidence to the contrary, Carlos Correa has continually denied Altuve’s involvement in the Houston Astros’ cheating scandal that has rocked the baseball world for the past month. If it was true that he wasn’t personally involved, as the captain and unquestioned team leader, any issues with his teammates cheating it was on him to …

Tame Impala’s Slow Rush slows down band’s momentum
Share: Tame Impala is a band steeped in the sound of the past. Oftentimes they take those sounds and shift them into compelling new things that sound familiar. It’s one of the most interesting things on “Currents,” their 2015 album. Yet on Kevin Parker’s new album “The Slow Rush,” it all ends up sounding repetitive.
