Good lord it’s Alex Bregman featuring the Astros.

Springer laid out for one yesterday (where he threw out the runner at 2B) and now again tonight. I guess he may as well join the DL Party.

With the injuries, I feel Kemp needs to leadoff almost every game right now and play 2nd base. I do like Bregman in the 3 spot
2b Kemp cf Springer ss Bregman 3b Yuli dh Gattis rf Reddick 1b White c Maldonado lf Marwin
I feel this evenly distributes the offense and puts a speedy leadoff player who hits for contact with more ABs and Marwin in the 9th spot which I feel he would excel at.
If Springer is out for a few games as well- since he just left this game- then
cf Kemp rf Reddick ss Bregman 3b Yuli dh Gattis 1b White lf Tucker c Maldonado 2b Marwin

Dude, I grilled on the Weber, Astros already won..goodnight everyone I checked in with a friend of mine in Australia. Since they are a day ahead he was able to tell me the Astros won today. Why didn't your friend tell you Springer got hurt? That would have been some useful info.

Last year, they were so damn good at working counts and getting good pitches to hit. Maybe we miss Beltran more than we think.

That would have been some useful info. He told me to be prepared for a surprise. I thought it meant Marwin would get a headache and have to go on the DL with migraines.

Hinch trolls everyone with these lineups. I mean Marwin and even Gurriel at 2B instead of Kemp says it all.

it only took two and 2/3 innings for the Astros to get a hit tonight. That in itself is a Leap forward.

The thing I want to see is which young guy can produce when given the chance. Once the playoffs hit and everyone is healthy then that is the guy who will spell in the lineup.
So far White does have good stats but I definitely think keeping Kemp on this team will only help us in the playoffs. The guy can hit.

here we go again making retreads looks like aces. 37 pitches for 3 innings. You would think the coaches would see this stuff and put guys eyes on it.

well I guess the Mariners can have their heads up their backsides just as good as we can.

I just looked at Tuckers advanced stats. Nothing wrong with him but some bad luck. Get used to him being in left.

somebody is calling a good game. He stayed away from Gattis in his cold zone. Good job of pitching to the bear there.
