    Yes- while he was mediocre to plain bad for April/May/June - in July he had an OPS over .800 and is even better in August with an OPS of .825.

    Plus there are not a lot of great options until Yordan and Meyers come back… Espada flooded the top of the line up trying to get his 3 best hitters as many at bats as possible.

    I get the annoyance of Walker and his strike outs and he hasn’t had a monster month yet to off set his poor May, but he hasn’t been as advertised the last 6 weeks.

    This was a nice series win. Altuve is other worldly in New York. This team is like the old team.

    I didn’t bother to look it up but I could have sworn the tombstone Astros article was in 2005 and way early in the season when they were like 15-30 or something. Either I’m getting Mandela effect or developing memory loss.

    You are absolutely correct, of course, it was June '05, and it was Jose de Jesus Ortiz, not Justice.
