No need to back up the plate when everyone is scoring on walks and wild pitches.

Wild pitches? Or passed balls?

This is a huge start for Framber.
He can't afford another mental hiccup.
The Astros could not release their lineup until the Victor Caratini roster move was finalized, so we did not know about Jose Altuve's absence and were therefore unable to ask about it. A team spokesman said it is a "normal off day." https://t.co/eKhcW3sY0b

Yeah, I think we are at the point now where there should be no scheduled off days… Especially when we just had an off day two days ago

If their SP has a 7+ ERA, we don't stand a chance.

So what happens if Salazar gets hurt? Finally see Dubon at C?

This is Dollander's game log. He sucks. Bigly. Bagwell is already saying he can tell what's coming from the booth just from his motion.
We damn well better hit him.
