    Trout is a very good hitter, but he turns into Baba Ruth against us.

    McHugh needs to end our losing streak tonight.

    I had to look it up, and I'm a bit surprised too: career OPS .946, OPS v HOU .921

    I like the aggressiveness from Tucker. Taking too many pitches these last few games.

    Of concern:

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Luis Valbuena has a .450 OPS against lefties this year. Prior to 2015, his 3-year split was .618. Need a platoon with Marwin at 3B. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Astros?src=hash">#Astros</a></p>&mdash; Ben DuBose (@BenDuBose) <a href="https://twitter.com/BenDuBose/status/596505930990100480">May 8, 2015</a></blockquote>

    Unbelieveable, pitch was way outside but when things are going bad you get those kind of calls.

    Pick your poison. Platoon with Marwin and that's adding more Villar ab's.

    Or, they could just speed up the Correa situation.

    Would you feel better if I said "a great hitter turns into the greatest hitter against us"?

    Trout likely won't equal Mickey anyway.
    The Comet finished his career with more BB's than K's.
    Trout's current K total almost doubles his BB's.
