    The answer you seek is 6.7 million. Luhnow looks pretty dumb at that number considering how cheap hitters were this off season.

    The level of suck that is Evan Gattis is amazing.

    An Offensive Explosion + DK Dominance seems an '18 antithesis.

    Stassi is just gonna f**k around and earn himself a starting job next season.

    He's been nothing but solid so far.

    Maybe this gets Marwin going.

    I sure wish we would spread some of this offense around.

    Awesome game, but this has been the pattern. Dominate mediocre pitching, struggle against decent to elite pitching. Hopefully we can break that trend tomorrow against Manea

    That's what I was thinking. But let's score a few more runs first.

    Astros are funny. I guess they are feeling pretty good now beating up on poor Oakland. Just the remedy we needed and at the right time.

    Astros set to lead MLB in Run-Diff again.

    Wish they'd save some for the 1-2 runs-scored games
