    Bielak and Blanco

    If Astros lose, the gassed starters still get rest.

    Should've happened over a month ago.

    Brown and Javier could be more early-season form right now.
    _______

    Start games with an opener who goes 2 innings, then pitched a gassed starter 3-4 innings.

    Fewer pitches for them and still a good chance to get them the win.

    So, Maton, Graveman, Nerris, Abreu, Pressly.

    Get used to it… this is basically going to be the “third” starter come playoff time.

    Good work Maton. I actually think the Astros have a shot with the BP in control now. Let’s see. Only down 2

    That's why they've been pitching around Yordan. Looking promising now.

    Tucker has to get to 100 RBIs right now…

    Edit: Sorry Alex, didn’t remember you.

    Padres saved by the ground-rule.

    Game should be tied.

    Tuck and Abreu can reclaim everything here though.

    The live chicken sacrifice worked for Tucker as well

    Baseball and stupid rules. If it can bounce off my boy Jose Canseco's head and count as a home run, Jeremy should be allowed to score.

    Nevermind. We have the lead. Don't care anymore
