64-35 (.646 winning percentage)
5 games up over Seattle in the division, and 8 games above Oakland.
Tied for 2nd overall with NYC and 4.5 games behind Boston.
1st in run differential at +188 (but Boston is getting closer).
Team OPS+: 116
Team ERA+: 132
Top-5 WAR Players:
1. Bregman
2. Altuve
3. Verlander
4. Cole
5. Correa
First game after the break and everybody should be pretty well rested. Hopefully Keuchel can maintain his most recent pace. A win puts him back at .500 (and his ERA+ is officially better than league average now at 103) for the first time since his 2nd start! He's come a long way over the last month.
Going up against Skaggs who is having a pretty good year so far. Altuve has torn Skaggs up in the past, but Springer has never gotten hit against him in 16 ABs...yikes.

Yes, this is improbable, but it does have some advantages: I would like to see what Gattis could do at 1B when we shift Bregman to SS and we don't have the extra infielder that hits lefties. Giving the DH to Kemp also keeps him in the lineup and out of the outfield where his arm strength is detrimental.
First Last Pos OPS+/ERA+ (OPS vs Lefties) 1 George Springer CF 111 (.868) 2 Alex Bregman SS 159 (1.043) 3 Jose Altuve 2B 144 (.740) 4 Yuli Gurriel 3B 120 (.825) 5 Tony Kemp DH 130 (.777) 6 Evan Gattis 1B 117 (.801) 7 Max Stassi C 122 (.866) 8 Josh Reddick RF 108 (.790) 9 Kyle Tucker LF 21 (1.750) |

Holy Cannoli ..... We have had our first locked GDT thread. It was just a matter of time until I started getting complaints in my messages/report bin. Figured it was time to nip that'n in the bud so we can all remain friends. |

Altuve is due a stretch that he bats over .400 over a 15-20 game period.
