No Altuve. Whitcomb at 2B.


3B Bregman
LF Alvarez
C Diaz
SS Peña,
DH Singleton,
1B Caratini,
RF Gamel,
CF Meyers,
2B Whitcomb.
P Blanco

Interesting- Espada has figured out it’s better to have Caratini at 1B and Singleton at DH if Diaz is injured during the game.

LOL. Why is Singleton at DH?

Caratini should be as good defensively as Singleton and the Astros would lose the DH if Diaz is hurt during the game and Caratini has to come in and catch from the DH spot.

That's not enough of a good excuse.

Is Altuve just out?

Yordan and Bregman both back so we had to sit out Altuve.  Too many good hitters in the lineup are bad for the kids.  It's science.

This tone deaf cocky fat fuck costs us the game Saturday and bat flips on a routine single to right.  That's what you are paid a ridiculous salary to do you fucking ass, how bout yiu hustle, play hard and appreciate you getting a 2nd, 4th or whatever chance you're on! You're a JAG get over yourself

Pretty solid take right there.

Do we have a player on this team that will actively get hit by a pitch?   Feel like everyone dives out of the way even when need a runner.    

Clarification don't think Altuve, Bergman, Tucker, Alvarez, or Diaz should do it.

Also I'm all in on Gamel.

He may end up with a BA higher than his OBP if that were possible, but 6 for 13 now will play until Tucker gets back.

 

He should get plenty of ABs in LF over any other OF on the team, I wish he could play passable defense in CF, that way you can play him, Diaz, and Caratini together.
