Imagine a 5’6” first baseman? Matty Alou was in the ball park range. |

1. Springer RF 2. Bregman 2B 3. Correa SS 4. Gurriel 3B 5. Gattis DH 6. Gonzales LF 7. Stassi C 8. White 1B 9 Marisnick CF vs 1. Kiermaier CF 2. Duffy 3B 3. Bauers 1B 4. Ramos C 5. Wendle 2B 6. Cron DH 7. Smith LF 8. Gomez RF 9. Hechavarria SS
Interesting that we're resting three regulars. Altuve, Reddick and Kemp.

Totally unexpected after the last time with Fedoriwicz. I thought Verlander was going to have a conniption fit. |

I am not surprised Stassi in there.......he needs to hit against Snell instead of McCann. Verlander knows Stassi whereas he did not the other guy who is now history. It will be fine. Verlander needs to get used to pitching to both catchers. |

Seattle 1, Yankees 1 first inning. Is there any way they could both lose? |

Altuve is 2 for 7 vs. Snell with 2 homers. Clipboard says rest him. |

While I know it's impossible, I wish I could hear Lowell Passe call a game again.

Altuve is 2 for 7 vs. Snell with 2 homers. Clipboard says rest him. Ripken would have never broken the consecutive game record with AJ as manager. |

If the Astros win without Altuve....AJ is a genius.
If the Astros lose without Altuve....it’s AJ’s fault. This one is on AJ.

In theory we should be able to beat Tampa Bay without him.

Thinking about the speculation on mlbtv that the Astros might go after Abreu, it would seem like tonight’s game...with Altuve sitting out and Yuli at third....would be an ideal opportunity to get a look at Bregman in LF while letting Marwin play second base.
