    These insurance runs are invaluable, Springer with yet another big hit bomb. He just looks like an all-star MLB player

    Barring a huge coincidence, it seems deeper than one player. It's a team-wide mind frame.

    Said "mind frame" is great when players don't make extra outs (unlike last night's game-ended CS), so there's that.

    Stros need a better balance in this aspect.

    Eta- Sping Time !!!... while typing.

    I'll bite. John Axford is only slightly worse than Craig Kimbrel.

    That is why you don't jerk off on the bases when Springer is hitting.

    It's elite. Great too is his improved glove. He's grabbing damn near everything.

    Let's get some insurance for Kenny G. He's had some bad games in OAK, IIRC
