    Dusty has to change it up at DH. Wouldn't mind seeing Hensley. I like his approach. Diaz is overanxious and not giving you anything and Mancini hasn't shown much to give him a lot of confidence either. It's a struggle right now.

    Still too many people swinging for fences for Stros… would love to see Diaz work a count

    At this point, it's plain arrogance to not give this kid a shot w/ how god awful the current DH spot has been

    @jiggyfly Still think Hensley at DH over Diaz is crazy? Still have faith in all of those supposed "numbers" that say it's the right call?

    I’m still shocked with the Altuve slump. Its getting bad, like real bad. And I know he is untouchable but what do you do? Move him to 3rd AB?

    One double play killed a two hit inning. I think Diaz needs to sit.

    You don’t go to many games here so you wouldn’t understand.

    Douche Donaldson is perfect fit for this team and its fans.
