    A true contender can not have Maldy, Jake/Chas, Yuli and Pena in the starting lineup.

    Yordan!

    Yuli is devastating to watch right now, though. I checked, and he's a whopping 1 for his last 20 the last five games with a single, a walk and zero runs scored. And this is the guy you're batting 2nd and playing 1st over Mancini. I love the man, but this is a sad way for his legacy as an Astro to end, and there's zero reason he should be starting most nights, much less batting second.

    I seriously don't know how much more of Yuli I can take. Pena needs to be in 2 spot with Mancini at first base, even someone with an IQ of 50 would see this.

    Say whatever you want about Bregman, but I like him hitting 4th if Altuve leads off. Although Alvarez and Tucker batting back to back works well, too.

    We sure Chas crushes lefties?

    this seems an odd time to PH Diaz

    Pena's sac-fly was good, but he sucked today. Damn

    If the game goes extras he still has another chance but I'd rather win before then
