    Actually, look at the Altuve thread, and you will see that i did not only talked about yesterday, but lately he is hitting a lot and very important because we have Lowrie and Springer injured.

    Yes, and hopefully they will continue that way, and Kazmir will pitch 8 innings easily.

    Singleton has to hit a HR at some point this year, correct?

    Depends if he gets to play rest of season which is doubtful.

    He's really hitting like a leadoff hitter, whereas before he was hitting like an 8 hitter.

    Marisnick just can't hit. Adam Everett of the outfield.

    Another bad at bat by Marisnick, a hanging slider and could not do anything with that pitch.

    Is a pity he can't hit a lick because he does everything else great

    Well, he is hitting more like a number 3 hitter, because a leadoff hitter takes more pitches and more walks, and a higher OBP. Because he is so aggressive he is better with men in scoring position.

    Kazmir's location is great... velocity not there yet though (and as I type this, he hits 94).

    Was gonna say with his speed he should try to bunt more for hits but we've seen him bunt.
