    He killed it. 7-8 rows deep. Hopefully it's a sign of him breaking out of his slump!

    Any reason Brantley’s not playing after an off day?

    They are taking Dusty's advice about being aggressive early in the count.

    Since his HR hit right on or right past the 416 foot fence, he officially didn't hit it very hard according to some folks.

    So batting order doesn't matter much, but can Dusty give Carlos some love up in the lineup?

    Astros are the weirdest high powered offense. So many guys that hit a lot of just barely homers. Tucker hits the ball by far the hardest on the team currently, but everyone else just hits it at a 20-25 degree LA more often.

    Because a major league team should be practicing basic things such as bunting.
