    They haven't figured out what's going on with his knee yet?

    Manager Dusty Baker has already ruled out any defensive starts for Alvarez, who has battled mysterious knee issues for his entire major league career.

    In March, Alvarez revealed he had persistent knee pain throughout his Rookie of the Year campaign in 2019. In spring training, general manager James Click said Alvarez had imaging of his knees done, but no structural damage was revealed.

    Other information about Alvarez’s exact source of discomfort is unclear. Click said he “received no reports about (Alvarez’s) knees,” while the designated hitter trained at the alternate training site in Corpus Christi. Upon Alvarez’s return on Friday, Baker acknowledged he will probably deal with the pain all season.

    He got arthritic knees?

    He went from 1st to third last night and had to slide. I was hoping that wasn't going to affect him.

    I hope Kalas/Blum never leave. Was so mad when Deshaides left...but we now have the best announcing duo in the league and it’s not even close. You know Astros haters are reaching when they try to bash our announcers.

    Wow. LMJ covered! He usually makes Yuli run to first. I guess he was like, I can jog over there to beat Vogelbach.

    No offense today. But McCullers pitched well so that's good. High pitch count as usual though.

    Forget which CF poster made the Paredes-Dotel comparison, but now I can’t unsee it.

    Can't find it but yesterday I was reading an article and it basically said Maldonado had been clutch with runners on base and even more clutch when runners in scoring position(or it was with runners on base with 2 outs).
