POS L/R/S PLAYER OBP SLG OPS+ WAR
2B R ALTUVE, Jose 346 481 125 3.4
LF L BRANTLEY, Michael 374 466 131 3.0

C R MALDENADO, Martin 284 319 67 0.4

Two surprises.
1. Castro isn't starting with Odorizzi
2. Jones is starting at 1B

 

Is this the actual lineup?

 

It's on MLB.com gameday which always has the subject to change notice.

Hopefully Yuli didn't re-aggravate the neck with his fall trying to catch the foul ball that hit the roof.

 

If he was hurt I doubt he'd be playing 3B...?

 

Woah, missed that. I guess Diaz needs a break every now and then…

 

I Suspect this is a 'So Long' Start for Taylor if Bregman is returning. Of course Wilson hasn't had an opportunity, so maybe he's the man out.

 

With the possible return of both Bregman and Tucker at any time, the roster may shortly (tomorrow?) look like this:

R C Maldenado 67
R 1B Gurriel 133
R 2B Altuve 125
R 3B Bregman 117
R SS Correa 135
L LF Brantley 131
R CF Meyer 161
L RF Tucker 132
L DH Alvarez 139

Bench
L C Castro 88
R IF Diaz 128
R OF McCormick 113

I'm not sure, but this looks as deep as I can remember across all 12 positions both offensively and defensively.

 

Won't look like that as early as tomorrow.

 

Why Wilson and not Diaz?

 

DUSTY

When Dusty decides you're getting the day off, by god you get the day off. Even if he has to start Greinke in the field.

 

When Dusty commits to giving someone an off day he won't let anything change his mind. I bet he would even play a catcher in the infield in a Framber game than deviate from his scheduled day off plan...

 

Has Wilson gotten a hit yet as an Astro?

 

He's 1 for 16 in his career and that hit was not with the Astros

 

He's 1-16 this year, and that covers us and the A's.

 

0-9 with no BB for the Astros.

 

I love day games but what a PITA it is to float in the pool holding an IPA and an iPad

 

i'd take odorizzi with 3 2/3 innings
