When Springer starts going the other way like he has been, that's when you know he's locked in. Correa is starting to see the ball much better as well. I just don't see how you can keep Jake out of the line up right now. If we were in first and had a comfortable lead is understand, but we are on a nice run and Jake has been a big part of it.

This is not an easy staff to catch either. The starters live off of slow and low breaking stuff (Lance and the relievers are all for the most part hard and low). Nobody outside of Keuchel can hold a runner on.
This is better than 2015 Jake. He is ripping everything. Props to Hudgens for the "killing the leg kick" adjustment.
jake was so key to our run early last year. when he's able to turn over the bottom of our lineup, we are a very, very dangerous team.
