    The Tigers are a special kind of bad right now, their offense looks to be of the worst you'll ever see.

    I never say that you "should" sweep in this sport, but not sweeping would be a bit of a disappointment.

    If Jesus would heal his hand then Yordan wouldn't need the extra rest. Pray more!

    Dubon and Meyers need to be glued to the bench.

    Tigers will start two LHP this series

    That guarantees two starts for Chas, right? Riiight?

    For real lol.

    The key word is they should sweep the tigers. However, once in a blue moon the astros lay goose eggs against bad team.

    Hell, the year 2021 astros record was not that great against team <.500.

    We went 34-14 against the 4 worst teams in the AL, and 64-29 overall against under .500 (7-0 against the Detroit)

    Astros fans have this weird hangup on thinking they struggle against bad teams.

    Yep. The reality is that every year it seems like we struggle against 1 bad team- but overall we do are job and collectively club the bad teams like baby seals. Last year was bad against Detroit maybe? One year we were shitty against Baltimore. But yeah- that's just randomness.
    Hell, one of these years we might even lose a series against the Yankees when it matters.

    Dubon back at second base....

    Hensley playing DH?

    I'm surprised Dusty didn't find a way to slide Julks, Salazar and Meyers into the line-up.
