    Except for his first 9 or 10 starts in 2017, Keuchel hasn’t been the same pitcher that won the cy young in 2015. I know he’s been ok but he’s just a little better than average now. Good 3rd or 4th starter. He has pitched pretty well his last couple of starts though.

    Hitting .462 over the last week. Anywhere is fine with me.

    The line-up by formula: Toro has been tearing it up lately at Sugarland so his MLB sample is limited and skewed. Biggest surprise is Castro in the 1 slot.

    L C CASTRO 407 OBP
    L LF BRANTLEY 389 OBP
    R 1B GURRIEL 150 OPS+
    R SS CORREA 146 OPS+
    R RF MCCORMICK 551 SLG
    L DH ALVAREZ 512 SLG
    R 2B ALTUVE 363 OBP
    R CF STRAW 327 OBP
    S 3B TORO 154 OBP

    Posting this here for all those that think the Astros have the worst baserunners.

    Can't remember who but I think the Braves also had an epic trainwreck on the bases yesterday.

    He's been a bit of a godsend this year with Brantley/Tucker/Diaz missing time.

    Seems to be just instinctual at everything: has a good idea of what he's doing and is selective at the plate (even though he does K way too much so far, not unexpected), solid if not spectacular at all 3 spots in the OF, and is good on the bases

    Last night, Astros became the first team in history with 6 HRs in a game without any from the 2-6 hitters.
