    Stop yelling. There's no way Springer bunting was the "clear move". If you actually think he can't hit with RISP, you should cut him and move on.

    Thats your opinion, not mine

    Now, i do think we should had bunt

    Now, White is starting to worry me, is not only he is not hitting, he looks awful out there. If this continues, i think Singleton should be up in the majors. Yes, numbers are bad for Singleton, but is batting lately.

    A better team comes out of that inning with a crooked number. Passive and impotent at the plate right now collectively. May be time to drop Altuve in the order to get more rbi opportunities to pair along with Rasmus.

    Especially with your number 4, 5 and 6 guy in the lineup. Then again, we probably have one of worse DH and 1b in the league right now.

    If you take out those 5 ER that Fister shouldn't have gotten from the Springer lights mishap, he would have some good numbers. Perfectly acceptable for a #5.

    It's slightly more complicated than "put players here, pitch there".

    I don't necessarily like it as much as the Stros do, but still...

    I'd love for them to find a legit leadoff guy to put in front of Altuve/Correa/Rasmus (or Reed or whatever LH)/Springer.

    Kemp in LF?
