    you would think that wouldn't be the way they handled breaking the news to pence. but who knows.

    really makes no sense to keep him out of lineup tonight. lefty, day off, first happ game, want your full lineup in there and give fans a reason to get excited.

    Lance Berkman not in the lineup Friday for Astros, but they are facing a lefty. He's still listed as reserve on lineup card. less than a minute ago via web

    This thread rules! I'm all for a total team restructure. Hope all these rumored players being dealt really happens.

    isn't it funny that the only source that we have so far that pence isn't in the lineup is pence himself, and we aren't sure if it's accurate yet?

    Someone did translate it already, but let me clarify a few things so maybe you can translate it yourself next time!

    With re-tweets (basically like a "forward" in an email), you have to read it backwards, cutting it off at each "RT".

    @AstrosCounty: Brutal! RT @stephenhigdon: Probably getting traded... RT @HunterPence9: Damn...I'm not in the lineup.

    Or, backwards with cutting:

    RT @HunterPence9: Damn...I'm not in the lineup.
    RT @stephenhigdon: Probably getting traded...
    @AstrosCounty: Brutal!

    So, HunterPence9 (the @ denotes a user) says he's not in the line-up. stephenhigdon re-tweets that (RT) and adds "Probably getting traded". AstrosCounty re-tweets what stephenhigdon said (another RT) and adds "Brutal!" himself.

    LOL Miguel, I see you posting those same rumors on NeoGAF (I didn't know you had an account here, but I should have suspected). Hopefully some promising prospects come back in return. I've been wanting to deal Berkman since the start of the season.
