    How about Fresno's hitting coach? If we want to promote from within. Or the people J.D. Martinez went to to improve his swing.

    Yes yes, I understand, we’re facing a lefty, but why not Tucker at LF, Marwin at 2B, and Yuli getting today off? Tucker needs everyday AB’s while he’s here, and Gurriel has been in such a bad slump I think an off day would help him reset. Plus I don’t like his defense at 2B. He needs to stay at 1B/3B.

    Time to come alive! A few more losses and the Astros will find themselves virtually tied for first place in the division or worse. If so, given the upcoming schedule, it could be a hard road back to the top.

    I will never forgive him for giving up 5 runs in that 11 run inning to the Rangers. This is a revenge game for us. Sweep his leg.

    Since when does MLB success directly attributed to one's ability to coach?

    {sauces} Sparky said Springer was taking swings already. Just hold the lines a bit longer.
    They can't win this series so I'll be happy with a tie.

    Calling it a soft cast may be too strong, but some sort of stabilizing sleeve.

    No, Tucker doesn’t need every day at bats with the Astros. We already are struggling to score runs. We don’t need a sub .500 OPS guy pushing better hitters out of the line up.
