    The Blue Jays are striking out at alarming rates but they have more thump. The Astros have been weak and feeble for the most part this series.

    Marwin should not be batting 2 in any scenario.

    Gotta score to win. 1st inning was probably our best shot

    Started before TOR, but injuries play a role. I think the addition of Marwin will somehow help enable us 2+ runs tonight.

    Need the good pitching to continue.

    came in on a 12 game hitting streak (obviously prior to the injury). You'd rather have the .030 hitter, the 1-35 or whatever Rasmus is, or someone else? Come on..Marwin there is totally fine right now.

    Pray tell, who should go into the 2 slot instead?

    watching 5-9 is brutal.

    How has he gotten so bad? I don't get it, he started the season on fire

    Can't complain about pitching this series. Guys have bounced back nicely. Now if only 4-9 could give us half of a true MLB hitter.

    Marwin is also the best bunter on the team. I have no problem with him hitting second.

    It's hardly ever the pitching, the offense has not been powerful for quite some time now.

    Correa's bat met first pitch... more of that please.

    Collin's great pitching continues.

    I'm just glad we're really hitting our stride before our huge series against Arlington.

    2/3 of the lineup is just a pile of suck:(

    I never thought I would miss Valbuena so much

    This has gotta be Tucker's last game up. He's gotten enough AB's.
