Lol, to be fair Latin men waaay more comfortable with this than American. Hell Yordan kisses Maldys neck as a celebration. To close for my comfort but hey.
I just don't understand, still. The Astros in their entire run of excellence have never been as bad as they were this year at home. And, to be clear, it's not like they were 20 games under .500 at home. Yet, still being any amount of games under .500 at home is just nuts to me. Such a bizarre year for them in many facets.
I was watching the Phillies game the other night and the crowd was going bonkers. Not once did they think, man we lost the superbowl, the WS and the MLS cup all in one season. Almost like those things didn't happen, they were just living the moment. A lesson to be learned in there somewhere.
With a few hours left to speculate on the lineup, it's worth noting that Heaney is a lefty. I actually really liked the lineup last night even if Brantley went 0-5 and we know how bad he is against lefties. Do they swap him or Dubon for Chas? I kinda think Dubon has earned the right to start the rest of the series. And then will Dusty play with the lineup order at all, especially with Tucker?
I feel like you have to start Dubon and go with the hot hand until it's not. He's come up with some clutch hits and plays when we need it.
I’d leave Brantley. I feel like he will come through on offense. Altuve Pena Alvarez Abreu Breggy Tucker Brantley Chas Diaz tonight would make me happy. I think we need to go all out on O tonight. If we win tonight, we will win the series.
It's probably going to be Chas in LF. Dubon CF. Brantley possibly subs as soon as Heaney is removed just like how carter played right after valdez was removed. If Chas has another bad showing at the plate, it'll be a easier decision to replace him. Chas bounces back, they'll keep the lineup
