Interesting- Espada has figured out it’s better to have Caratini at 1B and Singleton at DH if Diaz is injured during the game.

    Pretty perfect game to take a three year old to. Was over before he got too bored and got to see a couple homers. Thanks @UTPhil2006 for the suggestion about the first game certificate, had plenty of

LOL. Why is Singleton at DH?

Caratini should be as good defensively as Singleton and the Astros would lose the DH if Diaz is hurt during the game and Caratini has to come in and catch from the DH spot.

That's not enough of a good excuse.

You think Singelton is some kind of defensive wizard at 1B or do you want someone else to DH entirely?

Id guess he doesn't want Singleton at all but he is actually about average batter against RHP.....complete shit against LHP

Is Altuve just out?

Yordan and Bregman both back so we had to sit out Altuve.  Too many good hitters in the lineup are bad for the kids.  It's science.

Altuves last off day was 5 days ago so he was due

It's 18 games in a row without a day off.

Pena still on his bullshit

Dare i say it....

Carlos correa would have made that play

That wasn't smooth, but hey it works

Good job not giving up any there

This tone deaf cocky fat fuck costs us the game Saturday and bat flips on a routine single to right.  That's what you are paid a ridiculous salary to do you fucking ass, how bout yiu hustle, play hard and appreciate you getting a 2nd, 4th or whatever chance you're on! You're a JAG get over yourself

Pretty solid take right there. 

Peña’s fly ball reminded me that I have fond memories of the right-centerfield wall in Citizens Bank.

Blanco has been playing with fire all night. So far he's gotten away with it. 

"Usually Cintron is more vocal"

lulz

There you go rook. At least Jake has speed

why was he playing so far off the line?

Not everyone can be Dubon in LF.

It feels like whitcomb should play every day until he conclusively proves he shouldn’t. He seems hitterish to me right now. 

And he just got burned after falling behind. At least it was just 1 run

Stacey needs to find a good man to help her put the bucket on that John Deere. Maybe if she cleaned herself up a little she could find a fella that would stick around for a while not just long enough to get that milk.

Every team needs a professional slap hitter like Ben Gamel on the 26-man.

He may end up with a BA higher than his OBP if that were possible, but 6 for 13 now will play until Tucker gets back.

Do we have a player on this team that will actively get hit by a pitch?   Feel like everyone dives out of the way even when need a runner.    

Clarification don't think Altuve, Bergman, Tucker, Alvarez, or Diaz should do it.

Also I'm all in on Gamel.

What was the point of that Philly fan teasing that weenie and then not taking it down?

My gf absolutely despises his hair/the way he looks (as do I). She’ll appreciate this  comment.

He should get plenty of ABs in LF over any other OF on the team, I wish he could play passable defense in CF, that way you can play him, Diaz, and Caratini together.

Danger averted.

For the moment it was, anyway. Clock is quickly ticking down on Blanco.
