    Uhhhh, so when McCann comes back do we make Centeno the new DH? Move Beltran to RF?

    Also, I agree with all of the posters who say Marisnick needs more AB's, but I also feel that way about Marwin. These are good problems to have, though. This team has a ton of depth.

    Sure... it was something along the lines of that the Astros haven't really played anybody good since the whole division is under .500.... and it didn't matter that they were largely under .500 due to losing to the Astros.

    I stated the division was mediocre. "The usuals" suggested I thought it was bad. What a shock.

    I guess no one really knows how good this division is or how good the Astros really are, considering that they still ain't played nobody.

    Shoutout to the Indians for improving the Astros' SOS though.

    The Astros are 1-20 with RISP in this series and yet, they've won the first two games.

    Baseball...

    Hmm I was fooled by this tweet. Checking B-R.com you are right.

    In truth, Beltran would be the one to sit more to let these other guys play more if he wasn't the $16m man and wasn't Carlos Beltran.

    Does anyone remember Rodrigo Rosario? He debuted in 2003 for a spot start against the Rangers, won the game, and we never saw him again.

    Makes you wonder what happened in 1912, so I looked it up;

    • Titanic Sinks
    • Yankees wear the pinstripes for the first time, finish dead last, 55 games out.
    • Girl Scouts Founded
    • Fenway Park opens and Redsox win the world series
    • Alaska becomes a U.S. Territory
    • Paramount and Universal Studios Founded
    • New Mexico becomes a State
    • Ty Cobb hit .402
    • Rube Marquard 19-game winning streak, got a raise to 2k per year.
    • There was a tie in a world series game
