    Myers
    Cam Smith
    Pena
    Walker
    Dubon

    The team is super stacked with defense and they are 4-0 against the mighty Phillies and the Cubs.

    The only team that is worrisome is the super team dodgers. The Astros are for real.

    Yet no position player for the Astros will make the All Star team.

    Good, that should fuel us moving forward.

    I have thought so. He’s 0 outs above average. That surprised me.

    Honestly/ I feel like he’s been as good as Bregman was defensively. Incredibly happily surprised by that.
    Maybe my eyes are lying to me.

    Nah, it's not just you. We certainly didn't lose much if anything in the field (or at the plate).

    He doesn't have the range as Bregman but it doesn't matter as much with Pena playing next to him. Pena gets to everything.

    Dubon has been worth a lot of OOA at 2B

    Bregman’s range isn’t what it used to be
