    a little early to complain about offense from Cam and Yainer.

    are we expecting Cam to be tucker already? if so, then that's unfair to cam

    are we expecting yainer to put up the same numbers as his rookie year? if so then it most likely won't happen because he has a lot more responsibilities now.

    if we need cam and yainer to bat higher than 6 spot, then there are bigger issues to worry about.

    And I don’t like Cam at 6 yet either although I get that we kinda have to hit him there. I think he’s still more of a 7 or 8 hole hitter right now.

    a little early on Cam, yes, but a continuation of last year. I hope he succeeds and it’s just a slow start

    Is that 9 walks for Altuve this season?

    that ties him with Yainer’s career total

    When Javier gives up a hit to a guy that is 1/14 to start the season on his first AB, this will not be pretty

    Can’t believe he got Kurtz out there. I was bracing for maximum damage.

    I don’t think the invisiball is a thing anymore, is it? Seems like he’s going mostly to his other stuff.

    Is the other stuff good enough if hitters don’t have to worry about the invisiball as much? Hmm

    Doesn’t seem like it. Doesn’t help he can’t locate worth a damn - it needs to be on the top rail.
