    McCullers should be our DH for Castro in AL games.

    Holy crap, Rays just hit the Jays for 9 in the first inning. Royals up 3 early. Yankees still losing 2-1.

    Just win, Stros.

    Great hit, then horrible baserunning.

    At least it's tied.

    ......I'll take the run, but STOP WITH THE BASE RUNNING MISTAKES. Trust Altuve will make it home.

    Yeah... George is trying to be ultra-aggressive today. It hurts to lose a RISP with Correa-Rasmus coming up though.

    Would love to know how hard that ball was hit off the bat. That was an absolute rope to dead CF.

    The Astros need a second base coach.

    eh, i guess i've seen worse baserunning. not the dumbest risk i've ever seen this team take.

    good cutoff and play by the dbacks.

    Awesome!

    Before people start complaining, Springer's job is to give up the out if it ensures that the runner scores without a play. Just wish he did a little less watching the ball and a bit more busting ass out of the box.
