    Well there we see one of the reasons Alvarez is not a regular playing LF.

    I’d like to see him work his ass off at 1st in the future.

    Not sure we ever see him as a regular in the field and that sucks, because I want him in the lineup everyday.

    If the Red Sox could win titles with everyday DH Ortiz, the Astros can certainly give it a shot with their first everyday DH in the AL era.

    Same man. I hope he does work on 1st base. I think @HTown2017Champs said Beer is most likely going to be their future 1st base.

    Is pure trash better than regular trash?

    Yeah I get it, but still wish he was good enough to play in the field on the regular.

    Urquidy 100% does not belong. I’m completely ok with him having been called up for a couple starts, but he will rightfully find himself back in AAA very soon.

    Bats will have to pick this game up obviously. Would be nice to take 2 of 3 heading into the break

    People have been clamoring for a DH that can actually hit for years... now that they have one, people are trying to make him into a fielder.

    I understand they like to use the DH to rotate off days... but that’s a plan that works better when they don’t have that one perfect candidate.
