    if marisnick can start hitting he will be good
    will harris was bound to break
    carlos gomez heating up
    altuve really solid, back to 315 avg which is top tier except for cabrera who missed games and is at 341
    correa is real deal

    tucker is good hitter but bad at of
    rasmus is solid
    hinch stays even keeled
    we should steal more often, in beginning of season we were putting a lot of pressure on defenses by constantly pushing bases
    villar could be really good but he just isnt
    gattis is a grumbly dh, always hungry for a home run
    valbuenas avg is too low
    marwin has had a breakout year hitting 280 with a lot of games played
    castro has had some recent big hits
    conger has some power and like castro has had big hits recently
    our bullpen is falling off
    lowrie caught fire after that double or hr broke his 0-28 slump, then he went like .450 10-22 after that
    springer needs to settle back in and ignite

    He's right!

    Gattis is probably the grumbliest DH in the American League, if not all of Major League Baseball. I don't know how to quantify it, but you can definitely see it when you watch him at bat. There's really no other word for it, as a hitter Gattis is just grumbly as hell.

    As for everything else, houstonhomer is completely on point as well. I admire and appreciate his insight and hope to see much more of him around here.
