The Astros play in an NL park this series, so we will get to see some of the pitchers hit.
Cole has a .174 career batting avg (watch out Jake Marisnick!)
Morton is a .074 hitter and Verlander has hit .093 over just 53 career plate appearances. Of course, Cole and Morton got a lot of PAs when they played in the NL.
Time for Morton and Verlander to practice their bunting. Maybe Cole swings away gets us a double.

Of his 41 career hits, Cole has had 3 HRs and 2 doubles. He has struck out only 37% of the time, a decent improvement over Marisnick.

Altuve has had a lot more success on the road this year and last year, so maybe he'll get going again.

The whole team hits better on the road, not just Altuve. Look for them to have some good games on this trip...as long as Gattis isn't involved.

Cole vs. Medlen might be our best chance...

Is this the 2nd or 3rd day without Gattis?

Is this the 2nd or 3rd day without Gattis? You’re missing that swing and hop, aren’t you?

No one in our lineup has more than two career at bats versus Medlen. Cole has never given up a home run to anyone in the Dbacks lineup.

Time to pretend you're Astros and not this poor imitation that can't hit a lick.

Maybe Cole can be the spark our offense needs!

Marisnick should have batted last.

Not trying to start an argument but I think Bregman needs to bat higher in the order.

Rumor is Bortaz has a tattoo on his lower back, Mar's place...the question is it short for Marisnick or Marwin.

Medlen struggling. I'd love to start with a big crooked number. Then Cole could just pitch.

I don't think I have ever seen Goldschmidt with such a low batting average.
