No one is willing to sacrifice for the team. Everyone wants their own counting stats.

I loved the Maldy bunt earlier this week. But that sort of team play is mighty rare today.

What’s the point of having a limit on challenges when the other team can still  request one?

What's the point of having a limit on challenges if the point of replay is that every call has to be right?

Good win, take the series tomorrow!  Also, the bats really should be due to wake up after scoring 2 runs in 2 games against these spares.

Hockey playoffs are better anyway 
Please keep me posted on the score 

You know in 2022 they make numerous apps for that right?

I’d like to see Peña or chas/siri at 1. Move everyone down one spot but keep Yordan at #4 and catcher at #8 

I don’t mind Peña at 1 but Tucker at 7 is a non-starter. Try again.

i like it but Dusty loves alternating L/R so we’ll probably never see it. 


itll be curious to see if Espada sticks to that next season. I like it

My preference:

Peña
Brantley
Altuve
Alvarez
Tucker
Gurriel
Bregman
Machete
Chas/CF

That actually has a chance to work. Which probably means it won't happen. 
 

The whole L/R thing seems overrated when the default alternative is to stubbornly stick with a slumping hitter at #3.

meanwhile, batting 2nd for the rangers...

Altuve is a #2 hitter
swap yuli and bregman 
siri has a better batting avg than chas and is trending up 

MVP/World Champion ‘Tuve was solidly #3, which continued all the way through 2018.

If my memory serves, the impetus to move him to the 2-hole was predicated on Bregman’s monster 2019, which has obviously proven to be a massive aberration (at best).

Something broke inside of him when he carried his bat to first in the WS. He has not been the same since, it’s wild.

Better offense, base running, and defense from Siri so far. Both guys are legit backup OFs. Astros need a real starting CF, with McCormick and Siri being the primary backup. Don't need both on the roster together.

 

Tucker

Altuve

Alvarez

Pena

Brantley

Gurriel

Bregman

Siri

Maldonado

A lefty pitching around Uncle Mike to get to Bregman with a RISP. How embarrassing.  
 

Edit...and just like that, it worked (for us).
