    Does someone have Altuve's numbers with RISP for the last month? Seems like he's always stranding runners.

    Small sample size (around 58 at bats for each). And, all it means is that in 100 at bats, a left hander will get 30 hits and a right hander will get 32 hits.

    That being said, what right handed hitters should be starting instead of the left handers he has in?

    Altuve is 3-14 with the bases loaded. That is just unacceptable and makes you think he is probably trying to do too much.

    The power in Springer/Lowries swings has diminished.

    Of course that happens when you break bones/tear ligaments.

    This offensive display vs a guy who shouldn't be pitching in the bigs is tough to watch.

    Simply too many unprofessional at-bats over the last month. Guys are clearly pressing, and trying to do too much.

    11 pitches that last inning. Hardly broke a sweat.

    Springer - 1 pitch 1 out
    Correa - 4 pitches 2 out
    Lowrie - 6 pitches 3 out

    Villar, Gonzales, and Carter for starters.

    Both Villar and Gonzales would have batted left handed.

    The Astros lead MLB with runs scored from the 7th inning on.
