    He has really rounded into a very nice closer.

    Agreed. If they are leaving their nut on the wall coming into the playoffs I am ok with that.

    I'd advise Justin Verlander to not be bad; it doesn't sit too well with some people on here

    DVR is still Top 7th, Astros just scored their 6th.

    Haven't seen the All-Time Road Runs/gm graphic in a while. All other teams Yankees.

    We can't be too far behind.

    Dodger's have lost 9 of 10 (once they lose tonight).

    Cleveland will hit their slump too.

    Probably just disappointed that they didn't make a big move at the waiver deadline.

    Here's to hoping Gurriel is DH tonight. I like Gonzalez at 1B. Marisnick (or maybe Maybin) with Springer and Reddick is the best OF. Really wish Fisher was able to play more before Aoki was traded. I think he will be fine long term once he gets past growing pains. September is likely not the time for that though.

    U thought he didn't get enough AB's?

    I thought he got a fair shot... just as fair as any other promoted minor leaguer.

    Agree that its going to be tough to get ABs now.... especially if Maybin continues playing sound defense and having enough occasional pop with base path speed to be a disruption.

    Springer
    Bregman
    Altuve
    Correa
    Reddick
    Gurriel
    Gonzalez
    McCan/Gattis
    Maybin/Marisnick

    That is an unreal lineup. I'm assuming this will be what we trot out in the post season. Any chance someone like white makes the post season roster?

    Maybe in the World Series when you need to PH for Keuchel in the clinching game.
