    Also, Astros need to focus on the Astros. Rangers will fall. So will the Angels.

    Remember Chas was raking with pop before he got hurt. Chas/Meyers will be a very solid CF rotation if Meyers can keep it up.

    Astros gave him a roster spot. He should be grateful.

    I do that double steal with men on the corner bases all the time in The Show. Nice execution by Pena and Tucker on that one.

    Remember Oswalt used to do that

    Yeah, Roy, point at the HR

    He was awesome though. Pitch clock wouldn't have mattered either

    Jose Abreu has nearly as much negative WAR as Alvarez has positive WAR. He's basically erased Alvarez's production from the team such that you could replace him and Abreu with AAAA players to achieve a similar result.

    I imagine Dusty won't change anything until Chaz and Brantley are back, but Dubon the leadoff man has got to go ASAP. His little hot stretch really saved us, but he's fully turned back into a pumpkin. I'm fine with him starting because Hensley hasn't done jack s**t to take the job away from him, but no reason Dubon should be anywhere near the top of the order.

    Dusty said Diaz will catch France, lets see if him starting twice a week becomes an actual thing.

    I think unless he totally tanks he will stay where he is because Dusty sees him as the prototypical lead off hitter for all those old cliche reasons - doesn’t hit for power, high batting average, kinda fast.

    Using Baseball Reference, Dubon also is more valuable than Yordan.

    And supposedly replacing Yordan and Tucker with AAAA players would have only cost this team 1 win this year.
