    He never played a game in the Dodgers minor league system. He wasn't a power hitter when the Dodgers signed him.

    I was away and saw the Yordan HR on replay. My reaction was "WE AIN'T DONE YET!". :)

    Where would the Astros be if Dusty gave up on his love for Dubon before the season? LOL. Would have thought y'all would have learned last year to trust Dusty.

    They really should've walked Yordan to get to Abreu...

    Yanier Diaz is already a better catcher and MLB player in general than Maldy

    I still can't believe they chose to pitch to Yordan in that situation, it's like they haven't been paying attention.

    What a win! That’s two awesome games in a row.

    And when did Dubon turn into Ted Williams?! I am starting to love that guy.

    Tons of positives from tonight's game:

    Brown struggles early but gives his team a chance to come back. We've seen JV do this time and time again.

    Coming from behind with the bats against a quality pitching staff.

    Pressly is all the way back.

    Jake Meyers getting expensive PT has given his bat new life.

    Dubon, Julks and Maton continue to excel.

    The bullpen overall has appeared to get past it's early season struggles.

    And last but not least, please save Jeremy pena, Dusty. Make Spike Lee proud and do the right thing.

    Well I think they have been paying attention and he’s been on the struggle bus a bit so Snitker took his chances and he had his lefty (yea I know) but when the lights are the BRIGHTEST he seems to come through but yea I hear ya

    Another good start for Brother Brown. It wasn't sexy but he got through it without losing his composure.
    Maton breaks his hand and returns better than ever? I've seen that movie before
