Man I hope they wrap tonight. Going to be in building. First time ever to go to a WS game. To have it as a close out opportunity. Wow!! Come on Astros. Win it for Max, La Piña, the city of Houston. Bring the trophy back where it belongs.
Moreso than that, he can actually play 1B in more than a "stand there for a handful of games in his career" context.
I eat right, supplement, work out etc but my old man’s bad genetics caught up with me, 50mg of Losartan daily
If the report is true, then Lee or Y Diaz called up. Hensley at 1B Vasquez at DH 2B R Altuve 5.1 SS R Pena 4.8 LF L Alvarez 6.8 3B R Bregman 4.5 RF L Tucker 5.2 DH R Vasquez 2.1 1B R Mancini 1.5 CF R McCormick 1.4 C Maldonado 0.2 Bench Hensley 0.3 A Diaz 1.0 Dubon 0.0 Lee/Y Diaz I want to see Hensley at 1B, but not in this game. Mancini has the experience.
The guy people are using as a source to suggest he isn't playing.... is guessing. You can tell on the tweet. I would wait for the Astros to report it before making any calls on this.
I’m digging the “Framber Valdez quality starts tour” shirts the guys are wearing taking batting practice
He would be allowed to catch. We would just lose thr DH and our pitchers have to hit. They can’t do much worse than Mancini or Diaz. So I say go for it.
If that is the case. I am guessing we get a Vazquez, Mancini pairing. Would really suck to lose one of the better hitters in your lineup this postseason and more so the automatic picker at first base. Luckily, this Astros team is super deep.
