    not on the right side of the plate at least.

    gotta test the left side to see because rangers got the wide left side strike about 3 times already

    France could really use a DP and quick outs.

    He already needs load management, and should prob be limited to 85 pitches.

    Here we go again. Our SP looking like trash early, already down and looking to get further down, and then after that happens we know what the bats will do.

    Go look up the 2019 World Series roster. Dusty took over in 2020...hate having to explain basics to bandwagoners.

    Good catch Doobie.

    Astros need offense. Take some pressure off France.

    Hard for the players to be accountable when they are on the bench or playing with guys that should be on the bench.

    our starting pitching is a far cry from what it was last season. it's a crapshoot what theyll give us. it's completely obvious that our path to potential success this season is to out-hit other teams and put our best possible lineup on the field as often as possible. after maldy starts the next 2 games, that means the best offense (which every other manager would have put out there probably 75% of games conservatively) will have been on the field for ZERO of the 9 games Brantley has been back for. Unfathomable.
