I take Marwin over Gattis in any position with the exception of catcher. Marwin has played LF, not much, but has done it. Now, i prefer to have Marisnick in RF and Tucker in LF, but i don't want Gattis in the field. Actually, i don't want Gattis playing at all.
Awful at bats by Tucker, Lowrie and Gomez. Tucker swings at a very bad ball, low and outside for a weak infield out. Lowrie swings at a 3 and 0 count, that pitcher was NOT going to throw 3 strikes in a row. Then Gomez, swings as a very bad ball, same a s Tucker. We cant hit with RISP unless your name is Correa, and he is not going to see many good pitches to hit with Lowrie hitting behind him. That is why i want Altuve hitting 4th, he will protect Correa. GUYS, ALTUVE IS HITTING .338 WITH RISP!!!!!!!!! Let Lowrie get walks and Altuve drive him, Lowrie to the leadoff spot, Altuve to the 4th spot.
I'd rather Keuch have a so-so outing and ball harder on the road. Stros can score runs at home, but struggle away.
we have not seen that this year, at least this time was not with RISP. Gattis numbers with RISP is .220, ouch.
