    Expecting a low scoring game with continued b****ing about the lousy hitting on the Astros side.

    FanGraphs had a preseason projection of 0.300 wOBA (0.681 OPS). His 1st 7 games, 0.357 and 0.808. Since then, 0.300 wOBA (0.686 OPS). It is almost like he's a bad hitter that had a 7 game hot streak. His future performance can't take away those 7 games, but judging Dubon should be done on a much larger sample than 30 games. Almost every year there is someone that is incredibly hot (or cold) for a week or two at start of the season that it takes a while for their stats to regress that in the mean time people over rate.

    JD Davis has turned himself into a fine 3B...that was not the case when he was with the Stros

    Thus far, it's not an early season problem.... it's a stadium problem

    He will be okay

    Bregs killed that inning. Can’t even take a day off because Dusty’s bench is not great.

    I was a decent hitter in HS. I would swing and miss 1000 times in a row against that framber curve. I do not understand how anyone can hit that pitch.

    If Bregman, Yordan, Abreu, Tucker are all not hitting at the same time, there's no hope for this offense.

    Breggy is becoming a rally killer

    I’ve never seen such an exact replica of the Buckner play
