    I predict 2/3. JV gets it done tonight, lose Sat, win Sunday.

    Nope, according to 790 they can do nothing about Jabreu, he must and will play no matter what.

    I wonder what’s up with Meyers never playing when Verlander pitches.

    S.O.B !!!!

    What is w/ Dubon always needing to start when JV pitches?

    JV is a flyball pitcher. Meyers is a better CF.

    Not to mention Washington is starting a LH pitcher.

    What am I missing? And How do the Astros not care about those things?

    Astros with only one series win on the young season. Hoping they flip the script as the schedule gets a little easier

    We had Dubon's strong arm on Wednesday for the ball Meyers would've caught.

    Espada picked up some bad habits from Dusty. Hopefully he picked up some good ones too.

    Dubon is his “personal center fielder”

    Dusty says that dubon is a “better thrower”and is needed to keep runners from taking extra bases

    And Singleton is hitting .263 in his career vs. left handed pitchers.

    His WAR just went up .1 to 0.0:)

    Got rid of a manager who didn’t give a **** about situations and hired his right hand man

    We once led baseball in fielding positioning and analytics, and now we have to be about the worst at anything modern

    Was a quick count, but I believe we are 3-4 when Jon starts at 1B, 3-10 with Swaggy there
