german has looked pretty solid against us this season. not sure what other teams are doing that we can't figure out.
-
altuve is getting hot, but shit, why is he lunging so much more than previous years? makes him off balance.
-
ravech talks about all the youth in mlb and how they're responsible for winning games now. then he says "judge, bird, sanchez due up, speaking of youth." i know 25-26 is young-ish, but come on.
-
or at the very least, cleared marisnick.
-
how in the f can marwin not get to 3rd on that shit? it wasn't even close.
-
kemp should hit 9th any time he's in the lineup.
and gattis ain't going nowhere.

seems like jv isn't throwing many fastballs. maybe it's a strategy?
-
correa should've had that.
no bregs today is annoying, but they're giving stanton the day off, so whatever.
hopefully jd + jv is all we need.

the way they showed real photos it definitely had the feel of a finale (although i already knew it wasn't as i watched).

I have 5 good OF's ... anyone need one that can spare some good pitching, closer or starter, make an offer.

not watching, so i didn't see his pitching live, but seems odd we left lance in so long when he was getting knocked around. we have bullpen arms who can go 2-3 innings who are severely underworked. would've been nice to get him out before they got 7.
-
kemp is our 2nd best outfielder, and not sure it's close.
-
or don't.
-
nice, thx.
keep it together, lance.

altuve was in the right there
not watching, what happened?
-
calling him up too early only hurts the big club long term and it's not like they're going anywhere this season anyway.
-
seems too often we depend on contact against high strikeout guys.
-
"houston appears to have figured it out" is an enjoyable theme over the past several years, starting with draft slot allotment and international signing.

also re:bauer, maybe i just skimmed the article, but there sure seemed to be a lack of team related goals, especially considering the indians are universally projected to be the 3 seed in the al. maybe that's one of the reasons his teammates dislike him.
i guess we're spoiled, and obviously everyone's team goals were fulfilled last year (minus cole, rondon, smith), but you just rarely hear any type of chatter like that from our guys (although i know correa would like to win an mvp). i get the feeling bauer would be moping around if he had a shitty game that turned into a 12-11 victory for his squad. probably down in the clubhouse watching tape instead of high fiving his hitters.
re:hanley - i'm reading it's largely based on the huge payment that kicks in if he reaches a certain amount of pa with the team, so i guess that makes some sense. they're fine offensively and he's been slumping. as far as us getting involved, it would surprise me if hinch went after someone that cora didn't fight to keep on his team (obviously those decisions are made higher up, but still).
-
oh, and i hope he makes the all-star game for the first time.
thinking verlander probably starts, but then what does the a.l. manager aj hinch do? he looks at his roster, sees a bunch of his guys, and trevor bauer. hmmm, who should i put in?
-
if malkovich is in the show now, basically playing kgb, which was a borderline laughable character even at the time, that's not a step in the right direction. i like him, he's a good actor, but this is not a smart addition to this show. i mean, why couldn't he have been a shady american?
-
that bauer article, yeah.
when i read an article from someone else's point of view, other people's quotes about bauer, he comes off like a bitter nutcase. but now, finally seeing things from his point of view, with his direct quotes, he comes off like a bitter nutcase.
not exactly sure what that all means, but i have a couple guesses.
-
so because of the credits scene, are we to assume that the entire "x-force" crew is alive and well and potentially in a dp3?
not a big fan of that. nothing of consequence should happen in the credits scenes.

pretty much made one mistake today (couple of our guys got walks or reached on error) and pitched 4 scoreless last time. several low stress innings today.
