    Goodrum and Diaz, the black holes of the offense so far not including our catchers. Hopefully Altuve is back soon so we see less of both.

    Goodrum sucks and it's a joke that Baker hit him in the 2 hole but he had one more hit than Bregman and Gurriel. Still too many regulars struggling but Baker's lineup construction doesn't help.

    Did anyone ask baker in the post game why he keeps putting Goodrum in the 2 spot?

    I mean, he got on twice so he wasn't the issue. Bregman and others decided they weren't interested in driving in runs today.

    That too but this team struggles close and late anyway, no matter who is hitting. Leaving runners on has been an issue for a few years now, as well as timely hitting in close games. Lots of season left though. Hopefully, this gets fixed somehow. Not sure how though.

    Participation ribbons are a huge part of what’s wrong with our nation

    You can keep it and wear it with pride

    Springer was in the batters box and sent him yard twice as well.

    Dusty heard your complaints about batting Goodrum ahead of Alvarez and Tucker. So instead he put Diaz in front of them.

    Keeping everything else the same, switching the results of Tucker's ABs for Goodrum's this past game would lead to a 2-2 game except maybe Tucker gets a hit in the 9th with the extra AB.
