A's are pesky. If the Astros can win these next two, A's may take one from M's.

Those two ABs with the bases loaded for the As were terrible.

Not sure why you are complaining. Only one HBP.

Saw you talking about there is no way the Astros injuries could be worse than the Orioles. It's literally every good player the Astros have this year who have been injured.

Two of our backend bullpen guys just went on IL within the last two weeks. We're on like a 12 straight games to be played part of the schedule and 3/5 of our rotation is coming off TJ, forearm strain, or been out for 3 months with a broken bone.

So yeah, the rotation and BP is held together by AAA guys, duct tape, and hope - of course they aren't great and have control issues.

Hernaiz did a decent job being down 0-2 and getting a ball to the outfield. Pena or Tuve probably attempt to score there.

23 games in 24 days is brutal

Sorry I'm not really that concerned. I forget sarcasm doesn't automatically translate sometimes.

My bad as well. Tired and responded emotionally.

All good brother.

Against RHP I would go
Pena
Yordan
Altuve
Correa
Walker
Sanchez
Diaz
Urias/Dubon
Melton/Chas

Against LHP
Move Diaz up one and possibly Urias/Dubon, too
Slot Cam either 7th or 8th


Agreed.
However, Cam needs to not play for a spell, and then only against LHP.

His OPS is down to .672, he's shaved over 1.0 bWAR off his total, and his defense is now hurting us. If he plays most of the remainder of the games he could get his OPS below .600 and finish off his once considerable +WAR.

I'd toss Caratini into the RHP lineup. He has a knack for getting hits from the left side.

How are you switching the current lineup around? Correa 4 and Altuve 2 w Yord at 3?

Surely someone knows Yordan's status by now. 2015?
