Greinke vs. Canning
4-1
It would be nice to end this road trip with a win and leave the Angels' fans pissed. The offense still looked good overall, but the bullpen can't hold on to everything if our starters don't pitch deeper...

Starters can’t go deep and the relievers can’t throw strikes, which makes 4-1 great all things considered.

Altuve
Gurriel
Bregman
Alvarez
Correa
Tucker
Diaz
Straw
Maldonado
Hopefully Brantley will be back after the day off tomorrow. I'm a little surprised that Altuve or Correa aren't getting today off.

I read on the Astros site that Brantley could be back today, but, it may be a wise move to give him the extra days. I see no reason to give either Altuve or Correa a day off this early in the season, especially with the off day tomorrow. I was expecting Maldonado to catch Greinke, but, since I'm sick of watching Maldonado at the plate, I was hoping for Castro. |

I don't think they need a day off, but our pattern has been to combine a team day off with a player day off for extra rest and "load management". |

It's irritating when they consistently give the HOT player the day off and it put's them in the deep freeze.
Oh! You went 4-5 with three HRs and a double? YOU need a couple of days off.

Don't they ever learn on how to pitch to Trout, anything down he kills.

And for the record, I think Ohtani's dribbler was going to roll foul.

I am surprised Castro is not in there today with a day game after a night game, with a righty on the mound. Maldy looks a little slow so far behind the dish.
