    Toro's hustle is going to keep him around long enough to start getting settled in to major league batting. Pay attention, Tucker.

    Yeah, it was close, but didn’t look like there was any contact with the bat.

    Meatball to Thames.

    Lefties are killing Greinke.

    Well perfect night to not have Altuve and Alvarez in the lineup especially with Correa on the DL.

    Too many men on base allowed. Hope he can correct it moving forward.

    Still count me as one who is not concerned about Greinke right now.

    So... no really such a big fan of Greinke so far. I feel like we got a pitcher at the tail end of his career.

    I don’t trust Greinke. Gives up tons of hits. Has a terrible WHIP.

    Maybe he's just trying new stuff with the Astros such as throwing a 89 mph meatball right down the middle.

    So if the Astros still are able to score to their season average of 5.6 runs, they still win but no Altuve, Alvarez and Correa so ya.

    Considering the guys that replaced Altuve and Alvarez - Reddick and Toro or Diaz - have the only good swings so far it's not so much of a problem yet.
