    2 wasn't ideal, but I'll take it out of the loaded/0 jam. Especially if Fister can settle down again

    Fister seems to have a little more velocity on his fastball, but he's leaving it over the plate.

    He may indeed be more effective at 86-87 if he can spot it better. Professional hitters aren't as professional as they used to be... With stuff on the corners, regardless of speed.

    He broke a couple of bats and they got 2 singles out of it.

    Agreed. It wasn't a timely walk, though, and he wasn't able to make a good enough pitch with a man on 3rd and 2 outs to limit the damage.

    He's a 5th OF, and there's nothing wrong with that. Unfortunately the Stros are only carrying 4 outfielders right now.
