    He may not get a hit every time up but you know he is going to make the pitcher beat him... great zone recognition is why I believe he is going to be a very good bat for awhile.

    Exactly. He has professional at bats damn near all of the time. Kemp does the same situationally, as far as youngsters go.

    “Good times never felt so good...”

    People need to realize that this year’s Astros team is just as special... if not more dangerous... than last year’s.

    Better potential lineup (when healthy)
    Better starting pitching
    Better bullpen
    Better bench

    Shifting on Kinsler and then throwing away is weird.

    I swear, the Astros treat JBJ like he’s Pujols in his prime.

    Osuna appearance likely incoming.

    Bully has been shaky so far. Finish strong.

    Our bullpen is beating the crap out of their bullpen though. Hard to believe we only got 1 hit the first 6 innings.

    If Jake took a full swing, would strike 3 have bounced twice before it hit the bat?

    If the Astros can get back to beating the hell out of the opposing bullpen they will make another deep postseason run. Love seeing this.

    Did I jinx it??

    Agreed. I think they should beat the hell out of every team they play from here on out.
