    I wouldn't bat him 2nd, but maybe this will get him going. Lower part of the order is where I would bat him.

    44 degrees and sunny in Chicago. Winds are from the north. Look for a low scoring game.

    I like the lineup changes but until our pitching improves it’s a bandaid. At least it gives us hope lol

    After Espada's comments about The Astros just needing to play better baseball and getting over the hump I believe again. I am fully expecting a W tonight. It was foolish to doubt....

    So, Singleton is bad, but Jabreu is 15 times worse?

    All we need is a team meeting and we should be World Series bound in no time.

    all these young pitchers always do well as a rookie.

    after that, they just fall off once the league have replays of their pitches.

    Can’t pitch
    Can’t defend
    Can’t run the bases without TOOTBLAN
