    Good at bat by Altuve, battle and hit a line drive to cf.
    Is a pity we can't say the same thing about Carter, when was the last time you remember Carter hitting a hard ball against a fastball??? This guy looks like he can't hit fastballs.

    Hmm. We're making a combined effort losing right now, pitching isn't working and our high powered but highly inefficient strikeout or hit a home run offense isn't working either. Sigh.

    Like Preston Tucker wiping his forehead after every pitch? Maybe when he swings, his helmet moves..

    The problem with Tucker is he is swinging at high fastballs, he needs to make the pitcher throw strikes and stop swining at that pitch.

    Carter leads the league in strikeouts, is at best an average fielder and has one of the lowest averages in the league. Can't believe he'll be on the roster any longer than it takes to find an effective replacement option.

    You're the Chris Carter of the Astros forum. For months we've hoped Carter would turn it around but unfortunately, like cangejero???????????????????? it's generally the same lousy crap each day and I'm losing hope that we'll see a turnaround.

    Caminiti's fielding and arm were ridiculous.
    He came to my school during his first Astros tenure.
