    Astro pitchers are serving up Italian dinners: meatballs and pizza pies.

    So, Sanchez has 96 in his bag, where is that? Weve not seen the high heat from him. Give Strom a full year and I bet we see an improved AS

    Keep your head up Sanchez. You just had the gut feeling that when Sanchez decided to go to 2nd instead of 1st that the baseball gods would come to collect. They did. Next time get the sure out, don't get greedy and try the dp.

    His only problem has been health.

    Very good hitter, great defense, and he's been clutch late-game and postseason.

    Why would you ever throw Chirinos anything but high fastballs?

    Unless he thought Yuli was off the bag, which he didn't signal, I have no idea what play that ump was watching.
