    That takes some of the drama away from the final roster. Siri and McCormick are your centerfielders, Castro is healthy enough to avoid the IL, and Goodrum made the team even with his terrible showing in spring training.

    Every game delay makes me appreciate the Astrodome. First indoor stadium at a time many thought it was impossible.

    According to twitter the game is postponed.

    Guess twitter is wrong. Just delayed.

    That’s hilarious but she’s not wrong, last thing we want is someone busting their ass running up those waterfall steps

    I'm not generally a fan of Julia, but that was SMART MOM.

    It's not really her fault, but interviews and promotions while the game is actually in play bothers me. I'm sure what she does before and after the games is probably great, but I never see it. It is the same reason I despised Milo after a while. He forgot about the game.

    Have you figured out the difference between a windup and stretch by now?

    I bet Julia knows.

    It’s not, but he’s not really a fastball pitcher anymore. He lives and dies now on that change up. I’m not expecting much out of him to be honest.

    How big does the leg lift need to be to be a windup? It's like how tall must you be to be tall? At least Luis' windup is a no-brainer.

    Will they get another Spring training game in or is Spring training unofficially over?

    Yesterdays game has been changed from postponed to cancelled.
