    Chas should be batting 5th. Castro not so much.

    Chaz reminds me of the next version of Gattis, but Chaz can play defense.

    Chaz and Diaz will be part of a formidable bench for the rest of this season.

    That's a bad pitch on a 1-2 count.

    That felt like a Crawford Boxes pop up HR.

    Edit...4% hit probability

    You could do a whole lot worse than Chas/Diaz/Castro/Toro

    the numbers will even out in the sense the As have had a weaker schedule, have played (and won) more games at home, have not performed well against better competition and have a lower run differential. So, yes, it will even out … but not in the way you are predicting.

    Could they get lucky all year? Of course. But I put the odds of the Astros finishing first in the AL higher than the odds of the Astros finishing second in the West, so that’s where I’m focused.

    Evened out. Should have been a strike 3 in the prior at bat.

    No... the strike 3 to Straw was to make up for the previous horrible strike call..

    Greinke can go 2 more innings

    All Star break coming up, an old school 120 pitch outing is OK...right.
