    Brantley has had some shitty luck tonight. He’s has killed the ball pretty much all night with nothing to show for it

    It’s going to take some games just like it did for this lineup to get going

    Brantley smokes it again, but no hits.

    Needed another week in Sugarland.

    You say this during a stretch where he’s been tinkering just like he always has but they are still killing the baseball

    You mean the fans never get comfortable?

    There is some utility with hitting guys in different spots and finding out where things work out the best. Ultimately, when Altuve, Bregman, Yordan, Tucker are all getting key hits in the same games (and all getting the most AB’s)… the rest of the lineup benefits immensely.

    He plays the stars regularly and they seem to have gotten more comfortable as they hit the stretch drive. Yanier hits whenever he plays. Chas has continued to hit regardless of his spot in the lineup. Pena hitting better where he’s at now vs. any other spot in the lineup this year (including 2nd).

    Who’s getting more and more uncomfortable??
