    Sort of hard to get guys out with straight fastballs that don’t have any sort of precise location.

    .553 OPS, 2nd lowest in MLB against lefties. Damn Breggy...how far you have fallen.

    And the guy he is replacing has no plate ability. None.

    So which would you rather have?

    Bregman has crappy hitting ability. He is just really good at recognizing pitches. Too bad he can't hit them anymore.

    It's time for the obligatory "I've grown tired of Alex Bregman" thread

    My Dad, God rest his soul, would have said to Pena, "Get that bat off your shoulder."

    I can't help wondering why he hasn't been taught a better batting stance. Maybe it's as simple as that. Maybe not.

    4 stranded in the first 2 innings. Bases loaded with no outs, 1 run. Then leadoff double followed by 3 choke at bats.

    things just not improving.

    Where can I make a bet that I pay $5 whenever an Astros leadoff double results in a run, and they pay me $5 whenever the player is stranded?

    Bregman simply hasn't been good enough for this team this year. He's been a good on base guy with a sporadic glove at times this year and streaky. Not good enough.

    Javier is going to keep getting shelled. I'm surprised that didn't happen earlier.

    This was an odd game to bench Julks
    Same hitting coaches. Same manager. Same inactivity by the GM

    BP fastballs. He’s not missing bats… at all.

    He’s becoming virtually unpitchable.
