    If anyone is stupid enough to take him off our hands I'm all for it.

    Thats why i don't trust winning after 6th if KC has the lead, that bullpen is just tough.

    Who can forget last year's left-fieldcapades but theyve never even given him a chance at 1st. I think being in the lineup everyday helps his at bats immensely. Going back to some spring training talk; they shouldve tried him at first and gattis some at catcher. So at least one DH's. Of course Gattis was hurt but I dont think the FO would even entertain the idea.

    I'll just pretend that their 2017 prediction cover with Springer of us winning it all is still in line.

    He took some grounders at first... but even then, White (and eventually Reed) are figuring to warrant regular AB's as well.

    Tucker also has had issues vs. lefties. He's about right where he should be right now... the DH against right-handed pitching.

    Unfortunately, the vapors stunk up the entire game.

    I don't know if Neshek does this all the time with men on base, but if he's not balking he's damn close to it on every pitch. No real pause at all from set up to delivery.

    No reason we shouldn't have been able to score 2 runs. That error should not have impacted the game the way it did.

    Castro got that triple stroke going!

    I'd squeeze him home.

    Awesome slide, Castro.

    Who was that Astro a few years back who was horrible sliding? He had above average speed.
