    Man, the Astros were wizards at the DFE (draft-follow-evaluate) tactics back in the day

    And no, I did not know Espada was drafted ahead of Rollins. Oops (but the MLB draft is chock full of "oops'es")

    More ABs for the top of the order!

    Why nobody formats the lineup tweets to where you see all 9 spots without clicking on it I just don't know. Probably belongs in the Hangout "things that annoy you" thread

    I checked Twitter and for this tweet it does show the full lineup without clicking on it. Not sure what changed when I embedded it.

    Rodgers needs to play today like his job is on the line.

    He may be selling insurance this time next month.

    At this point with all options considered… why not just cut Rodgers and play Dubon full time at 2nd??

    If they don't trade for a lefty hitting 2b who projects to 105 or better OPS+/wRC+ then just do it.

    Release Rodgers and bringing up Guillorme to sit on the bench and look left handed.

    DFA Dezenzo or Chas and bring up Melton to play CF/RF vs tough RH pitchers.

    Decent crowd for a Wednesday. Lance got some solid stuff, some hard hit balls so far, only a matter of time.
