    Expecting a low scoring game with continued b****ing about the lousy hitting on the Astros side.

    FanGraphs had a preseason projection of 0.300 wOBA (0.681 OPS). His 1st 7 games, 0.357 and 0.808. Since then, 0.300 wOBA (0.686 OPS). It is almost like he's a bad hitter that had a 7 game hot streak. His future performance can't take away those 7 games, but judging Dubon should be done on a much larger sample than 30 games. Almost every year there is someone that is incredibly hot (or cold) for a week or two at start of the season that it takes a while for their stats to regress that in the mean time people over rate.

    JD Davis has turned himself into a fine 3B...that was not the case when he was with the Stros

    Thus far, it's not an early season problem.... it's a stadium problem

    He will be okay

    Bregs killed that inning. Can’t even take a day off because Dusty’s bench is not great.

    I was a decent hitter in HS. I would swing and miss 1000 times in a row against that framber curve. I do not understand how anyone can hit that pitch.

    If Bregman, Yordan, Abreu, Tucker are all not hitting at the same time, there's no hope for this offense.

    I’ve never seen such an exact replica of the Buckner play
