[Official] White Sox @ Astros

Didn't take long for this thread to be......

 

Sorry, still thinking of this as "pre-game so it's ok" until about 1-2 hrs til first pitch

 

WWW. Astros give Sale the Kluber treatment.

Reading the 'daily fantasy news' on ESPN, made me laugh:

Friday could be a day to focus more on individual players in favorable spots as opposed to team stacks since the available pig-piles don't feel as explosive as usual. But there are some locales worth considering, beginning in Minute Maid Park with Miguel Gonzalez taking the ball for the visiting Chicago White Sox. The Houston Astros picked it up in June, stroking a 0.364 wOBA against right-handers for the month. Regardless of handedness, Jose Altuve, Carlos Correa and George Springer are always dangerous. Marwin Gonzalez is a tough out along with lefties Luis Valbuena, A.J. Reed and Colby Rasmus. The latter three are best utilized in a tournament stack.

Hopefully the fantasy writer knows what he is talking about.

Astros should finish 7-3 before the All-Star break for a 49-40 record.

Huge turn around from 40 days ago. Hopefully that puts us <7 behind the Rangers.

 

Minny -103 vs Texas. Whats with that?

 

That would be incredible. To go from 11 games undef to 9 games over in about 6 weeks would be startling. Reminiscent of 2005...just sayin.

 

Justin Morneau is in Houston. Just sayin'.

 

Today Reed will get his first hit, if he doesn't i will not post in the weekend.

Goooooooo Reed

 

That's a helluva wager

 

Love the start by fiers. Keeping guys off balance and locating well

 

Lawrie is a punk

 

Lol Dont know why I quoted you

 

Good looking cuts there. I think we'll knock him out of the game 2nd time through the lineup.

 

Too bad I think he is right.

Actually, I guess it is a Win-Win

 

Problem is he had 2 mistakes pitch and could do nothing with it

 

I won't root for it, but there's potential for a win-win-win. If Reed doesn't get a hit but gets robbed, and the stros crush.

 

No idea why we did not guard the line against this hitter
