    Up 7-3 to start the inning, and not a soul in Houston felt comfortable.

    We could have a 15-0 lead in the 7th and I’d be sweating it out

    Loperfido has a .370 BABIP in over 400 big league pa, so I think the homers will come but even if they don’t Istill think he will be a viable “everyday” platoon player, just a matter of whether he’s a middle of the order or bottom of the order guy. His defensive value has also been higher than I expected, he is really good out there.

    follow up a super long inning with a 12 second inning at the plate. Perfect

    Blubaugh is not pitching as well as I thought he would this year. Once they showed he was going into the pen I thought he’d be a lock down reliever. Dude has hung way too many balls.

    Radio said Espada will start Arrighetti tomorrow or Thursday.

    More pitching for baseball's #1 offense.

    He is throwing high 90s stuff, the potential is still there but he is leaving way too may balls where they don’t need to be
