    Who's that? I was speaking of the Astros lineup in general.

    That doesn't surprise me one bit... but who are the teams that are leading? Any correlation with wins?

    I'm sure Luhnow could possibly build a "productive out" lineup easier than he could a power-only lineup... then again, i'm sure he'll settle for "every hitter is a god" lineup (as long as it jives with the service time/40-man roster issues).

    Bert Blyleven on the Twins' broadcast is saying this game is exposing the Astros weakness of adjusting to the breaking ball. That could hurt them in the playoffs.

    Think they try the double steal here? Get 2 RISP where a single probably ties it. Team needs a boost.

    I was listening to that and I agree but it's nothing new this season they haven't hit it well nor adjusted just up there swinging for the fences

    Duffey looked pretty emotional after exiting. Time to tag their pen for a couple runs.
