Commentary: Framber last pitched on the 8th. He would be on extra rest if he started today. Dusty sticking with his public statement of not starting a rookie catcher with a rookie pitcher. This is a preview of what is likely going to happen when Yordan comes back. Diaz riding the bench. Despite a +800 OPS career in AAA, Bligh Madris has no business batting ahead of Pena. At least Chas is getting consistent playing time. On the active roster, only 3 batters could scare a pitcher and one is buried on the bench...
The fck? Why isn't Diaz catching for France? Unless Diaz will catch for Javier later...I doubt it. Fck
I like Bligh Madris but starting him at dh and hitting him that high in the lineup is really ****ing dumb. That being said he will probably have a big night lol
Would be even more beautiful if our ****ing manager would play our best possible lineup at least twice a ****ing week
And to think Yordan’s rehab in Sugar Land was set back due to an “illness”. No time frame provided by the Astros either. Goodness gracious.
