    Springer looks to have hurt himself.

    Sale is filthy... the Astros have seen the toughest of the Chi Sox, Orioles and Blue Jays over the last month (all three teams with big-time "talent" that are vastly underachieving).

    Springer looked like he pulled something on that infield single attempt.

    Let's hope he's okay.

    We would just call up a minor leaguer.... one being Santana. Why not...

    this lineup has zero ability to hit for average.

    Especially not if they face Chris Sale every night.

    See my above posts... they've faced some pretty good pitchers, or pitchers that had been struggling and are now turing it around.

    They're still unlikely to ever hit for a high average... but that's not going to prevent them from winning games.

    Well, his good season thus far proves that his performance against the Astros was not a "fluke".

    Sale nearing 100 pitches. Get him out by the 7th. Get to the bullpen.

    That's our only hope to win game.

    Gattis and Carter seem to be completely intertwined... when one goes south, the other goes south... and vice/versa.

    McCullers is just as nasty as Sale.

    needs the location.

    impressed.
