    Keuchel looks like he's ready to give up some homeruns tonight.

    Still at a loss as to how Gattis keeps getting plugged into the lineup. Why do they keep forcing him in as DH? Are they seeing red flags with the AAA guys that we aren't seeing?

    Ehh, might be more likely to score on a broken play like that than with Gattis swinging.

    At the very least move him to the bottom of the lineup.

    This FO has shown reluctance to give up on guys. They would rather the team suffer a bit than jettison a guy they are still not sure about. Perhaps they think 6 weeks is not long enough to be sure its not just a drought.

    Man, that's a pretty bad missed call. Good thing we have replay these days.
