I don't know much about Lambert. Maybe we can get to him early and cruise to victory.

I remember the game yesterday, they mentioned he might have hurt himself on the triple....

I remember the game yesterday, they mentioned he might have hurt himself on the triple.... could be he gets an extra day off as a precaution. I expected Jake in CF today with Cole pitching and Maldonado would step in for Chirinos,

It didn't take long. Cole gives up his 1 run. That should be all folks.

No matter how well Yuli does, I think of him as our wild card.

2 solo shots. Better than walking guys when you have a lead in my opinion.

The thing about this lineup is that any two or three players in a slump doesn't prevent them from winning. Any of them can almost carry the team and any two or three can do so consistently.

21 runs by the Astros in this series in 12 innings. The Rockies and Seattle are no daily match for the Astros.

Altuve has never met an outside slider he didn't like.
