    100% agree on this. Honestly I'd rather see (gasp) Gomez>Tucker>Rasmus. Rasmus needs to get that issue fixed asap.

    I would like for the Astros go go out and get Dexter Fowler again in this offseason.

    rough start. Great pitches hit the other way. Hope Fister can work out of this giving up 1 or less

    Great display of professional hitting... Hoping the new Luhnow draftees are adept at this sort of contact.

    only if he's willing to play LF, which by all accounts he wasn't in any of the previous seasons here or in CHC. I also wouldn't want to overpay *too much* for his best season since leaving Coors (with an elevated .356 BABIP) given that he'll be 31 / has seen his speed decline.

    I like our chances if so.

    This is the same team that is currently playing Preston Tucker in the field right now... When the offense is this spotty, can't really be all that selective.

    Fowler could also be a DH.

    damn our batting averages look more like manziel alcohol level than baseball hitting avg.

    Didn't realize his BABIP was that high. It would nice to have him in this lineup right now. I just want OF who can hit. Is it that hard to ask for?

    Also, we better tag Lucas for at least 5 today.

    Indeed they do.

    Never really concerned me as much, since they were still drawing walks and hitting with power... But at some point, you can't be THAT inept throughout the lineup.
