    Sigh...good thing the Astros are in a sorry division. Seeing growing pains of a young team just starting to contend. Being in a bad division is keeping them relevant and they hopefully are learning some valuable lessons in this play off race. Bullpen is really the biggest culprit lately and have been the main reason they are losing the last few games. Feliz did well for himself today but he thew so much today he's probably not available for a couple of games.

    Carter in the lineup and Gomez hitting in the 4 hole. Does Hinch throw darts at the roster to decide the lineup?

    I think next time we face a lefty and Hinch wants to give Lowrie a day off (no idea why as he is hitting .325 against them) we can use Villar at 3b and Gonzalez at 1b.

    Also, Marisnick is hitting, play him tomorrow. Gray is great but righties are hitting .217 against him and lefties .196.

    Also, please Hinch, Tucker instead of Gattis, pleaseeeeeeee

    Yes, Gray is better against lefties, but Gattis is not hitting and Tucker hits righties pretty well.

    In that ballpark, LF is big, and foul territory, we can't use Tucker in LF, but we need his bat.

    Marisnick hits righties better than lefties, play him.

    Hopefully this will cause the Astros to play PISSED OFF tomorrow

    And rangers are now up to 2-0. That 4-game series is looking bigger and bigger each passing day.
