    Damnit I was hoping that Joe wouldn’t move Diaz up because of 1 good game. Keep him 8th for now. Dang.

    Didn’t he get hit by a pitch in yesterday’s game ? Hopefully it’s nothing serious. I also believe this may be one of his first days off all year ??

    Yeah, ribs are sore. He'll be fine.

    He's started 81 of 82 games (9 at DH)

    May have something to do with the dome being dug into the ground.

    Their pitcher's last 10 starts are equally split between disaster and good. I'm hoping for disaster.

    Astros are red hot; run with it as long as possible. The pitching is mind blowing. They keep running out "nameless" pitchers who are performing well. Their regular rotation is almost the "kiss of death." Hitting has picked up; will likely pick up more. If only Walker (strike out king) could come around.

    Rangers lead Seattle 2-1 in the 3rd. Seager a two-run homer.

    Yes he got hit and the team has said it's nothing major

    Which usually means anywhere from a few days to a year or so

    Sore neck? Is this a joke that I don't get or was there news on him?

    That’s what they said was wrong with him. Right before TJ surgery.

    Seattle Texas 2-2 in the 10th.

    Good luck McCullers and the offense.
