I have wondered if something happened with Springer. Is Springer turning into another JD only to continue not perform the way he was Projected? How long will Management give Springer compared to JD? Why did JD all of a sudden become one of the most feared Hitters in baseball after the Astros shipped him off?

They K so much more than last season. They were such battlers at the plate. The approach is the main difference from what I’ve seen. I hope they turn it around. This late in the season it is doubtful that they will. The ones strike out are the ones that did it consistently before last year. They all went back to their norm. What was surprising was How Much Springer and Correa and Altuve are striking out. What has Hudgens missed on his working with the offense. I still think they should have turned over several players as it was obvious that they had career years. That they wouldn't continue this year. Everyone seems like they feel like they need to take the world on their shoulders. Another good bat and Correa coming back and playing somewhat like he did the first part of the season will take a lot of heat off.

No, I was saying why did JD become the hitter after he left. Was it something the Astros did in their handling of Him and does it relate back to Springer. A good hitter doesn't go on a hiatus as long as Springer has without some underlying reason.

We made an error in judgment just like when we drafted Mark Appel number one.

being sarcastic........i despise the Yankees. At least you don't live in their backyard and every day get told Get a Real Baseball Hat. GO out and buy a Yankee Hat as I am wearing my Astros Hat. I switch from the One with the State and the other one for the WS Win. At least the Mets Fans don't really say much. Yankee Fans are very arrogant.

If you do, you’ll be called a bandwagon Yankees fan.

Then it was brutal Wearing a different hat or rooting for some other team feels unholy. When I was a kid, I tried supporting the Cowboys, but when they won, I felt absolutely nothing. There’s nothing like your home team winning.
