    Dusty would never do 2 consecutive lefties.

    Did you really need to see the ball on that game tying HR by Tucker?

    It was exciting thinking it was just a foul ball and then getting the HR call. Haha

    Yeah Dusty is really adamant about not having 2 consecutive lefties but Tucker and Alvarez hit lefties well. I don't know.

    I know. If you must go left right left:
    Altuve, Yordan, Breggy, Tucker

    Just get Yordan at bat in the first inning guaranteed!

    Apparently, Yordan requested for Tucker to stay 3rd

    I assume because Tuck is HOOOOT right now

    Dusty prob moves Yordan back to 3rd when/if Kyle settles

    Interesting. I hadn’t heard that. If Yordan wants it, it’s good with me! Haha

    Kyle Tucker deserves to bat 3rd right now, Kyle has carried the Club in Hrs and RBis during Yordan absence.

    If Tucker struggles move him to 5th, Bregman to 4th

    What hurt most was that Bader was down 0-2 with two outs, and then turned that into a walk.

    Gravemen got bailed on Volpe's terrible decision.

    Offense gotta do work

    What sucks is I think they said the walk was after a 0-2 count with 2 outs.

    Down the stretch the Astros can't afford to keep beating themselves with poor execution. Need to tighten up big time.
