    Dusty has had Diaz catch, Alvarez DH, and/or Alvarez rest in 3 of the 7 lineups. In the 4 games that those scenarios did not play out, Julks has played in 2.

    Too early to freak out about anything, but watching bad baseball sucks. The Stros have at times or all at once had issues with the SP, RP, hitting, fielding, baserunning and managing.

    So there's room for improvement!

    So Meyers, Julks and Dubon need the confidence boost, but Hensley, Chas and Diaz don't. Got it

    Guys like Salazar and Julks should not be on the team. Dubon should not be on the team as long as Dusty is the manager
    someone needs to tell him Dubon ain’t struggling because of confidence issues, Dubon just ain’t good at baseball

    For those who aren't watching, booth just informed us that Javier in '22 had (including the postseason) the best BAA, SLG, and 2nd best K/9 in the AL (minimum 100 IP)

    All your LHP are belong to Chas.

    Broadcast said that is Chas's 4th HR to LF in his career (1st since 2021). He has 29 career HRs.

    That's wild for a RH hitter.

    Seemed odd to see him hit one out to left.

    Very gracious of the Astros

    Fun fact:
    A Venezuelan won 7 consecutive AL batting titles --- Miguel (4x), Altuve (3x)
