    I like it in theory, but that 3-9 is a KaKewalK for a good bullpen in the latter innings.

    He'd either hit 2nd or 4th. It'd be something like this

    Altuve
    Correa
    Valbuena
    Springer
    Castro
    Gattis
    Rasmus
    Carter
    Marisnick

    or

    Altuve
    Valbuena
    Springer
    Correa
    Castro
    Gattis
    Rasmus
    Carter
    Marisnick

    Hinch wants to split up the RH/LH as much as possible.

    Interesting to see Castro catching Kuechel again... was thinking Conger was going to be the personal catcher, but I guess analytics thinks doing things like that are really dumb and restricting.

    Well Castro was one of the few consistently hitting over the last several games

    Or Castro's a good catcher with a hot bat and Dickey is a good RHP and the Stros have not been able to score runs consistently.

    That's a man's HR, nothing cheap about that one.

    That's the fastest turn on a double play that I've ever seen.

    After the debacle with Jon Barry last night, I'm kinda shocked at how polite these announcers are. Props to you, Canada, we'll give you Ashby back whenever you want him.

    i'm starting to dig the orange jerseys...Astros and Dynamo, the boys in orange.

    Would be sweet if the Astros brought back the Orange Helmet + blue star--should go all out with their normal home jerseys.

    Marisnick loves that 9 spot! 2 hits already (2-2)
