    Fastballs, Joey hit very good, but breaking balls...bats are afraid.

    They all immediately came out of the dugout after that low velo pitch.

    His BABIP was very high and was still striking out a lot.

    Hopefully he worked on some things at AAA that will help mitigate that.

    Dubin not looking great the last couple of outings.

    Confident in Dubin, but leadoff runners are problematic.

    Don't let him steal.

    Eta- 1st-to-3rd on a single. Damn.

    Astros will be lucky to be losing by 1 by inning's ending.

    Shift turns a tailor-made DP into 1st-and-3rd

    Because you made a comment about how it was odd they were pulling him immediately after pulling him…

    Astros with a decent chance to gain ground... but it looks bleak.

    Only down ONE at inning's end.

    Astros are fortunate. Good job Dubin overall... next bully up.

    Stros need runs, get some by any means necessary (except injury).
