Of course Rays missed the game tying HR by a foot foul. Also love how they suck now but when we played the 6 games against them they were one of the best teams in baseball lmao
They’ve got the Phillies, Mets and Padres coming up. Cleveland on the road as well and they’ve been hot.
Their schedule from here out is basically the same as Houston's. https://www.tankathon.com/mlb/remaining_schedule_strength
But still 10 HRs and 21 RBIs over that span. He slumps differently than most. It was right about that time I was clamoring for people to just outright walk him. Problem now is Rodriguez is beasting, so that strategy is out the window. And that's why this lineup is so lethal.
Trammell since July 7 after starting 0-11: 69 ABs .275 BA .845 OPS 10 R 3 HR 11 RBIs The equivalent of roughly 18 full games, down towards the bottom of the order. That's a 90+ run, 100+ RBI season. I just don't know what y'all are watching. Honestly I'm not even thinking of Meyers at this point. Trammell plays a great center field to boot. Meyers would have just half the RBIs Trammell has put up, even with his .300+ batting average. Not all hits are created the same.
For those looking at the WC race: 65-51 ----- Astros (Division leader) 65-52 0.5 Red Sox WC1 64-53 1.5 Mariners WC2 61-55 4.0 Yankees WC3 60-55 4.5 Guardians OUT 60-57 5.5 Rangers OUT We do not own the tiebreaker vs the Guardians, so they need to start losing.
Before this game he was 1 for his last 16 and looked overmatched. He had a couple of games with 3 hits before that. A single and a homer will boost your OPS considerably with only 69 at bats.
