Idk if I am walking into a sarcasm post I misread, but he got paid in spring training.

You were right on the sarcasm sir. 

There you go George

Great AB by both George and Jake

Didn't he change his swing this spring? Last year he batted .211 so your statement is not totally correct.

Yeah, I was talking about LAST year. Right. 

No. I heard somewhere around these parts that Marisnick wasn’t worthy of a roster spot. 

So far, THIS YEAR, he’s proving that theory wrong. 

Kalas just called that an earned run and MLB Gameday shows that as well.  Don't you have to wait to see how the inning plays out to know if Jake would have scored without the throwing error?

I was basing it on the fact that people had opinions from how he played last year.

No, because the hit take precedence. The hit happened before the throwing error

Yeah but if not for the error he would have been at first and then he wouldn't have scored on George's hit.

They based it solely on how he played in April. He was fine after his first recall at the end of May.

Both hits were earned. Scorekeepers can be wonky but that's how it's played out. 

correa's gotten pretty good at the 60 foot hit

Correa mashing them like Bregs did earlier last season.

He batted .200 in July and .184 in September/October. Personally, I think Jake fits in his role well.

I agree.  He's never going to be a good hitter but he plays great defense and runs into homeruns every now and then.  He's fine as a 4th OF.

Lol he had 10 ABs in July. 

Look at his numbers before he was sent down. They were awful. Then after, where they were in line with 2017. April skewed his season and people’s perception.

Great defense, speed, occasional power, and - so far this year - ability to get on base. 

Perfect reserve outfielder.

Not in a 7-2 game. 

Yeah, good point. I had forgotten we had a 5 run lead. 

Now what y'all know bout them Texas boys

Nice little 6-0 homestand.  2019 home = 2017-2018 road?

so they are going to win a lot at home this year? Cool

Made it interesting at the end, but a win, any win, is good.

Okay, then he had 2 good months and 3 bad months

No snarky trolling comment from me. That was horrible. The Astros are very, very clearly the better team at the moment. I hope that changes come October, but I won’t hold my breath. Fuck. 

Good series,  obviously,  but when they're at full strength they'll be a handful. We'll see them again in October
