    3 players in the American League had an OPS over 900 last season. 2 of them were Astros and both of them are currently on the IL. That MIGHT have something to do with the offensive struggles....

    Jake looking good. Keep pinch hitting for him until he gets mad and turns into a stud.

    Maldonado chasing records... needs to maintain his number of at bats to have the lowest batting average for qualified hitters, which stands at .168.

    I doubt this one run lead holds up.

    Peña’s offense is in the tank

    Peña looks like a AA player.

    Also easier to travel to see family. I would say my parents would have visited Manila more often if the flights didn't require a layover and an additional 4-5 hours on top of that.

    Who actually looks at batting average anymore?

    What is this the 1970s?

    No reason to believe me, but that's all about to change.

    Tucker assumed a HR, so he's on 2nd instead of 3rd..... in a one run game against a pitcher who's been dominating us

    2 leadoff doubles, 2 productive outs = 2 runs

    Exactly what they failed at several times last night
