    Really need to keep the pressure on McKenzie here. He’s shaky AF.

    4 year tank. High draft picks everywhere. Tons of talent. They did what we did. Yes they are for real.

    What are “Things overheard at the Potsdam Conference?”

    I’ll take Potent Potables for $300, Alex.

    Abreu playing with house money here… I expect some aggressive swings (even though McKenzie is wild AF).

    I’m tuning in late, but happy to see Abreu hit another homer

    Tucker had that pitch stolen. Abreu could have taken it, but tried to go the other way. Altuve mis-read it.

    It’s a mix of being a little too aggressive and running into outs.

    Altuve was going on contact, for some weird reason.

    Agree with the first part

    But no reason for Altuve to be aggressive, if the ball goes through he can jog home. Fundamental baserunning

    I love Altuve but he has never been the most disciplined runner

    He is the worst baserunner I have ever seen in MLB. Terrible instincts. Great hitter.
