    Toro looks much better coming back up and Straw is rounding into a serviceable CFer but at 28 anything you get from Jones up here is gravy. I’d like to be wrong as he looks the part, big lean strong guy but just can’t stick.

    I'm going to say it probably sucks being an Astros prospect that doesn't hit when called up. There just isn't time for OTJ training for guys struggling. He's the type of guy tanking teams should want as filler for a rental reliever. He might be nothing, but he either hits with regular ABs and you get a steal, or he helps you get a good draft pick.

    Astros hitters left 24 on base...TWENTY FOUR (12 LOB as a team), and they still scored 8 runs. This offense is absolutely a pitching staff destroyer.
