Left hand this time. For a left hander, it is the guide hand when batting. The quicker the bat to ball speed, the more it is used for power as well. His right hand (which he uses to throw) is good with exceptionally strong and accurate throws.
22 innings is enough sample size to say that the bullpen as of late isn't getting beat up as you alluded to, you'll need to let go of what happened the 15-20 innings before that. As someone alluded to the bullpen was excellent before that 7-10 game stretch of horrible performances by the bullpen. So at this point we can safely call it a "blip" and put it to bed.

YES! I can't even congratulate them for their performance without stirring up a hornet's nest about how recent, recent is.
I’m still not past the Vazquez goof last night in extra innings. How do you just do nothing there? Wtf? It’s why we lost.
Is Chas hurt again? I know he played Friday Just strange that such a solid manager would sit him seeing that he has a .999 OPS vs LHP, and start Dubon who has a .542 against LHP Chas must not be available
I'd like to know where you got your figures. Even if true, however, Pena's numbers went back up as soon as he returned to the 2 hole. And as of right now, Pena ranks ahead of Gurriel in every offensive statistic except number of hits, which Gurriel has had more plate appearances. https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/HOU/2022.shtml absolutely no reason Gurriel should hit more than Pena. NONE
Early getaway day game. That was ()usty's old guy substitute day. Brantley and Gurriel off days. Then Brantley went on IL. I guess it carried over for a bit.
Why does it have to be YESTERDAY? Geez Louis you're picky. Do you remember RECENTLY Alvarez was scratched?
