This is a good team for Brown to get his second start against. It should allow him to keep building confidence.

How’s Yanier Díaz building his confidence?

How’s Yanier Díaz building his confidence? Dusty being old school in breaking in rookies will do it the old way. First clinch then let them play, but then again the now playoff system has changed those old rules just might not apply.

We all know that Dusty is a players manager so it is no surprise he is loyal to the vets. It is a shame that he isn’t giving the rook Diaz more at bats but it isn’t surprising…

Maybe Diaz was brought up to light a fire under the guys who up until recently hadn't been hitting their weight

So at the moment, Altuve is actually the 2nd best all-around offensive player in the AL using Offensive WAR (which is a combination of hitting and baserunning). The only player better is Judge.
And Pena, is the 2nd best all-around defensive player in the AL using Defensive WAR.

Nice play from Yordan.
Brown seems a little wild so far.

If Brown can’t start throwing his curveball for strikes, the word is going to get around and everyone will be sitting on his fastball.

He'll settle down. He won't always have his best stuff. Get him thru five and then bring in Martinez for a few.

I just don't understand Dusty's fascination with continuing to play Dubon
