Yuli better watch out for White. Yuli needs a "rest".......he is swinging the bat like it weighs 10 pounds. White has earned the right to stay in the lineup. |

Verlander has a history of having a couple of games like this one per season.......He had his first against the Tigers and now this one. A 6-0 hole is hard to overome. We got to Paxton and did enough to beath him most of the time. We had great games from Kemp, Marisnick, and White.......Bregman, Gurriel, and Gattis all killed us by leaving runners on base. DAVIS SHIPPED TO FRESNO.........CORREA WILL BE ACTIVATED..........PRAISE GOD. I hope Saint is sitting down...........I would bench Gurriel or Gattis tomorrow and keep White in the lineup., No way would I sit him while he's hitting. Gurriel certainly needs a day off. He's older and not used to the long MLB seasons. We need him rested for the postseason. Gattis is fine though. He had to sit out most of those NL games so his timing will need a day or two to come back. |

Right now, White is hitting better than Yuli or Gattis. Yuli's timing is way off and that could be to being tired. Gattis looked bad proabably due to a lack of AB/s on the trip. White is coming around and hitting with power. |

Gattis is streaky....The great thing about him, he has legit power...so when he goes on a hot streak, it makes a big difference.....but for the playoffs, I hope the Astros can somehow get a true hitter through waivers....a Gattis, come playoff time, if he is not on a heater, will be more useful if the situation dictated a true feast/famine, go big/go home AB. |

The early settlers of Pennsylvania swore by it! |

I hope Marisnick is okay. We don’t need any more injuries.

The JV squad has been carrying us: Kemp, Marisnick, White, even Marwin.
