Need to take 3 out of 4, won't be easy, but in baseball you never know Young team needs a spark right now
Nice to see Reed get another look. I say start him a couple of more games in a row. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Here's how the <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Astros?src=hash">#Astros</a> will line up for tonight's series opener in Baltimore. <a href="https://t.co/nsLkjDjsDZ">pic.twitter.com/nsLkjDjsDZ</a></p>— Houston Astros (@astros) <a href="https://twitter.com/astros/status/766365822596112384">August 18, 2016</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
He's starting to come on... Multiple hits in 3 of his last 4 starts. Seems like many Astros fans have already decided that he sucks though.
As we fade further and further out of the WC, he should absolutely be in the lineup every day no matter who is pitching. At some point, this season has to be about seeing what we have for next year.
When is Hinch going to realize that Gattis is a terrible DH, especially against RHPs? I am sick and tired of watching him fail in big situations over and over again.
We really need to acquire SP this offseason. I don't think we have a legit pitching edge in any single matchup this series, and BAL has an average rotation.
