Nah, not as upset as I seem I suppose. He's perfectly tolerable, but if you want to improve the Stros lineup that's the spot to do it. I want to see him hit again. "Gimli the White" (because he does does look shockingly like a tall Tolkien dwarf) or "Orca" or "Moby Dick" or anything is better than the Great White. He has to earn that back.
Tu to tha !!! After snapping his hitting streak, he quickly returns. Eta- Bregman, very next pitch !!
Where did I or anyone say or give the impression that he should be benched? You think Hinch would openly talk about him to the media and then sit him? Talk about a confidence crusher He needs to hit. More. Better. That's his only job. That's my point. This is waaaaay more words than I ever planned on devoting to Tyler White. Game on, Go Stros.
Today we started a stretch of 14 games in a row without a day off. Don't let up. Blow them out. Any day we can win and not use Pressly and Osuna in this stretch is a plus.
Smyly has gotten squeezed a slight tad. We'll see if the upper-outside corner vs righties is not called for both teams.
White just seems like he’s not seeing the ball well. Astros can afford to be patient because everyone else is producing right now. But when do you make a move to give someone else a shot?
