Pitchers get hurt or spontaneously suck whether in minors or majors. Astros have brought up Valdez, James, Martin, and Perez the past year and a half. Urquidy will be up soon. Traded Musgrove. Minors are doing fine.
It's the greatest lineup I've ever seen! Everybody's wanted to see Straw at SS...So here...you...go....
So did I, what's your point? eta: just noticed Kemp is at 2B, this is an awesome up the middle combo. I'm sure they've worked together often. Is White at 1B? God I hope he is.
Having destroyed my sleep schedule (just woke up from unexpected nap), the Astros OWE ME another win. And Seattle's OWES ME some more Yakety Sax fielding moments while they lose.
Not sure I am a fan of our #5-6 hitters being the weakest guys. Too often it seems Bregman and Brantley get on and stranded.
