    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...

    I don't use the word r****ded often, but when I do it's usually to describe Dusty Baker.

    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

    I don’t get it man. Diaz needs to be in the lineup every day. And you can’t use the rest excuse

    I’ve never met him so can’t say if I would like him or not

    But playing him over Diaz is dumb AF

    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.
