lol Beltran didn't score on that, he's so slow. Gurriel could have had a triple if the bases were empty At what point do we glue Beltran to the bench? In his last 282 PA coming into today he's .226/.284/.416

I know that's in line with the Astros DH numbers since they got to the AL but that doesn't make them good It also doesn't help when you're parking the worst hitter on your team in the middle of the order

I get the feeling that the Cubs simply aren't going to wake up. That they're going to hover around .500 the entire year.Intruder posted:I know that's in line with the Astros DH numbers since they got to the AL but that doesn't make them good That's a difficult decision. He's obviously the worst hitter in the lineup but he's had such a positive impact with Correa, Altuve, Gurriel, etc. You probably don't want to mess with that. The answer is to hit him 7th or so, in my opinion.

I feel like once the Astros rotation is healthy it should be Keuchel - McCullers - Morton - McHugh - Fiers. Peacock has been better than expected as a fill-in for the rotation, but I feel he was much more effective out of the bullpen.

Don't get me wrong, the Astros have generally been rootable already. McHugh coming back though will probably have me actively tracking his starts though. He's easily my favorite non-Cardinal pitcher.

All Astros fans are thrilled that he'll finally be back right after the All Star break. Really, the fact that the Astros will (probably) be 60-29 going into the All Star break with 4/5ths of their starters gone for long periods of time is insane. I'm trying to take it all in as much as I can because I don't think the Astros will ever have a team that's this good in the regular season again.

Paul DeJong may be this year's Cardinals Bullshit. Is his name goofy enough for the thread? Also, Len and JD talking about how long Yadi and Waino have been together is kind of adorable.

This is a football score. Two touchdowns, one of which is a 2 point conversion. What a fantastic way to enjoy some baseball going into the All Star break. Gonna watch the gently caress out of the all star game this year.

The Braves bullpen is not good. The Nationals bullpen is not good. A day before the break could mean that this gets really fun.

I may be a big dumb idiot but I still have a lot of faith in Hoyt and I think he's one of our better bullpen arms. I just think he's had awful luck this season.

He reminds me heavily of Alex Rodriguez and I'm thrilled that to watch him for at least another four years. (Astros will likely pay him to be one of the top 5 players in baseball) Edit: Remember when people debated Lindor vs. Correa? Heh.
