[Official] Rays @ Astros

Singleton won't be winning any gold gloves, I'm guessing.

 

Rays are certainly going to be using the Astros to "get well"... they're too good of a team to have this bad of a record.

 

Just seeing Archer in the first, kid is nasty. Not expecting a win today.

 

im starting to feel bad for villar at this point. the guy has made some solid contact straight into the d.

and helllll no to singleton ever even sniffing a gold glove

 

Not a bad time for one of those Singleton bat tosses...

 

jesus...talk about not locating the payoff pitch lol.

 

I will take it, but the first strike on Castro looked high.

 

boom!

 

YESSSIR Dominguez

 

Matty D was due for that one

 

I agree he had a rough night Thursday in clutch situations.

 

Surprised he didn't strike out

 

There's the bad side of Archer

 

i would consider that, the good side of archer.

 

I may be crazy, but I like the guy. Can't have all studs in your lineup. I'd love to have him batting 8th or 9th in a couple years. Good D (and I think he'll eventually get back to elite D status), and should be good for hovering around 25 hrs/year.

 

I love being wrong. Archer has some nasty movement on his pitches. Can we trade for him? I'd give you Cosart and Appel LOL!

 

Definitely the best 3b defender we've had in a while.

 

I agree. While you would like to have great players at every position it's not realistic. If he can consistently maintain a WAR in the 2-3 range it makes him a very capable MLB starter. We would need to upgrade other positions offensively, most notably LF, plus we have a SS in the minors that looks like he may be able to play a little.

 

Good to see hits with risp

 

Bye Archer
