    I want to see what Josh James and his newfangled delivery/arm action looks like against MLB hitters. We know who Bielak is.

    Someone on the roster to force Dusty to use the right relievers as even Dusty won't use Bielak much?

    I would have said the same thing, and also about Mitch Haniger, and I know (because I saw them) they've had some big hits against us, but I just looked it up: OPS against current Astros pitchers

    Seager (165 ABs) .637
    Haniger (77 ABs) .600

    Ty France does murder Stros pitching though: 55 ABs slashing .342 .390 .528 .919

    Ty France scares the crap out of me. I swear, he's been giving me some prime Albert Pujols vibes.

    Pretty sure it was Bagwell not Blum giving him respect last weekend, said "he's a little square looking guy with a compact swing and he just goes up there saying 'I'm going to destroy this baseball on about every swing'"

    Just learned that he was a 34th round draft pick. Respect, I like him. *******.

    More fun facts I just learned:

    12 solo
    4 2-run
    1 3-run

    If you're gonna give 'em up, that's the way to do it.

    I am most likely moving to Tennessee by the end of the year. I am not thrilled about the sports situation, thankfully CF will still be available.
