    Barry Bonds' home run record better watch out.

    This is a fun team. Matchup does not look good for the Mariners today. They get Cole while throwing out a lefty. Astros can load up a lineup with 6 of the best 40 hitters against lefties since 2016 plus three other guys that have been at least average.

    Caveat:Astros may use this as a chance to get Stassi some ABs.

    Betting on Cole Train to have Astros never lost in a week and a half.

    I know they need to set him for rest, but I have started to dread the days that Stassi is playing. I feel that Stassi has reached his potential and it’s not as good as Chirinos. I am pleasantly surprised and happy with Chirinos play so far.

    Chirinos has been a happy surprise. If he was open to it, I'd guess Astros would be happy to extend him for double or triple a year to what he's getting this year.

    Hopefully offense comes around soon. Their pitcher is not this good.

    ETA: Looks like we may be mailing it in this game
