SInce those first three horrible games, Adell is hitting .300/.323/.600 in his last eight games - before tonight.

The Astros' jerseys should say "Trash Can City"

Marsh is going to be solid! a solid 3 War guy or better. 

Now, If Adell can maintain is new found approach and with Ward breaking out, we have a surplus of Of'er espically if Adam returns to form. 

So we can trade Trout for some pitching!

Ohtani seems to break a record or have some kind of historical first every time he's the SP.

[Lou]

it's the 3rd inning and our SP has 3 ABs

Astros catcher is as bad as Suzuki in getting calls.

[Inside Pitch]

Castro is costing his pitchers some strikes.

Hes doing the same stabbing wave motion...   Looks awful when alternating between him and Stassi.

Yep. Done scoring.

Another solid hit ball to the oppo side from Ohtani. Hopefully he’s ready to break out.

It's like he calls for a pitch then sets up on the opposite side. 

[tdawg87]

Notice how when we hit against the shift, it still ends up being an out.

This ump's strike zone is really wild and inconsistent.

Taylor is a Cuban asset.

And there it is, @Inside Pitch, Stassi just got the first pitch called for a strike and it was a baseball outside. That set up his strikeout pitch outside where the batter has to go but can't reach it.
