CF Springer 2B Altuve 3B Bregman LF Brantley 1B Gurriel SS Correa RF Reddick C Garneau DH Stubbs RHP James Dusty Baker said Monday's lineup against KC will likely be what you'll see Opening Day against the Mariners with Diaz at DH against a lefty starter. Dusty Baker intimated that this Astros lineup from yesterday will be the one he uses on opening night. He is still debating Aledmys Diaz vs. Kyle Tucker at designated hitter, though. The Mariners are starting lefthander Marco Gonzales. He said he needs to study Tucker vs. LHPs Zack Greinke is throwing a simulated game today at Minute Maid Park. Also scheduled to throw at MMP, per Dusty Baker: Joe Biagini and Brandon Bailey. Bailey is among the non-roster candidates in consideration for the bullpen. Wearing a mask in the dugout means no toothpick for Dusty Baker, which he said is a big adjustment. He's been doing it for his entire managerial career.
Not sure how he can study Tucker against LHPs unless he let's Tucker bat against LHPs. What's funny is that Tucker and Diaz both have extreme reverse splits. Though, I'm not a big believer in reverse splits being indicative of future performance.
Is it possible to stream? It keeps telling me I have to subscribe because my account cannot watch it.
I'm watching it on mlb.tv site. Just signed up via TmobileTuesdays.... Just checked and it's working on my youtubetv MLB network channel too. Just started to stream the 790 audio stream from mlbtv to match the youtubetv feed. Good to hear the Houston guys.
Royals broadcast said "Josh James was supposed to start for the Astros today but there's rain. The Astros need to get back to Houston at a certain time today so Pressly I'm sure they made the change so he can face some big league hitters." Astros say Josh James pulled as a precaution for weather. They didn't want to risk his start being cut short. He'll throw a simulated game tomorrow at MMP.
I was hoping to see James pitch, but for what it's worth, that was a dominant first inning from Pressly. 1-2-3 inning with two strikeouts. Definitely seemed to be hitting his spots.
So is that a subscription to MLB Network thru T-Mobile? I don't have YouTube TV so that won't work. Nor do I have a MLB TV subscription. I watched last night because it was a free game. I guess today's is not a free game.
Sprint and Tmobile (same company now) customers were gifted the season of mlbtv (all regular season games) for free on today's Tmobile Tuesday. Basically they give free stuff to customers every Tuesday. You can watch it on http://bilasport.net/game/kansas-city-royals-vs-houston-astros-1.html
Whelp....no HBP yesterday. But back to back bases loaded HBP lol. So many "fans" were drooling for the guys to get drilled.....2 cheapies.
Channeling my inner Bart Scott...CANT WAIT for the Stros to put these social media and journalism goons in their place. The disrespect and disregard for the truth is so far beyond laughable it’s disgusting.
Yeah, but most every poster on this board would be expressing the same vitriol, laughing at the memes and bemoaning the fact Team X cheated and prevented Houston from advanving in the playoffs if the situation was reversed.
