    A 12.00 ERA in triple Ao_O

    Maybe Julia will interview his parents.

    This should be the everyday lineup for the next month. We are going to win.

    All right, Singleton is playing !!! (The Abreu Factor)

    Espada should try Chas higher in the lineup again like Sunday. He batted 5th against Dallass and went 2-4, "2" doubles, 2 RBIs. Bregman DNP'd but that places him 6th not 8th. Whatever, maybe Mania is due regardless.

    Astros try to improve on their 3-12 record when Blanco doesn't take the mound.

    So we wait it out until almost mid June when Bregman decides to start hitting? Wasting one rally after another in the cleanup spot until then.

    Sad thing is Espada has made decisions like Abreu moving all the way down to the 8th spot. But for some reason Bregs is off limits.

    I would like to see Bregman in the 2 hole as he still gets on base at a decent clip. Alvarez and Tucker in their rightful 3/4 spots.

    But what do I know?

    Bregman is on a 5-game hitting streak with 9 total hits, 3 XBH.

    He appears to be un-slumping, although I agree he should've never been batting cleanup.

    Astros will be at minimum 3 games better than 8-19 after 27 games.

    It has yet to be determined if their presence is helpful.
