I think Walker isn't a clean up hitter. Strikes out too much and doesn't hit for high average. He'd be better in the five spot.

Problem is nobody else is better. Really missing someone like Brantley on this team badly

Okay. Not everyone is the same.

Just offering my two cents.

I actually agree with this.

Left handed 4 hole guy would be ideal.

I was curious about how Kikuchi was doing since I hadn't seen his name pop up and it's looking like he lost that 2nd half magic from last season already.

My biggest concern on offense is Yanier. He looks all out of sorts and about 20-30 pounds overweight.

Yeah he looks terrible. Uncompetitve, sloppy at bats, poor contact, swinging at garbage pitches, lots of strikeouts...

I was wondering during the Mariners series whether or not Caratini should be the go-to starter at catcher and Yainer be the occassional backup or PH.....

That suggestion would have been unheard of last season, but here we are....

Isn't he coming back earlier than expected? He's been solid for some time with Arizona. I hated seeing him leave here but I'm glad he's with the Astros. After watching baseball for 60 years or so I'm not hanging my hat on 12 games.

Daily Walkoff - I have no memory of anyone named Chad Harville who apparently pitched in 90+ games in 004-2005 for the Astros.

Pena has a higher xBA and higher hard hit percentage. Obviously he's not the hitter Tucker is, but it demonstrates the element of luck that's involved in hitting and how things will likely normalize over the course of the season.

my tip would be about visiting the gateway arch...and riding the tram to the top

I think improvements / renovations have been made in the past 20 years

but it was a bit claustrophobic back in the day

Back when the team had a hitting coach (or coaches) who knew what they were doing.

I've been to ST Louis many times. Just haven't been to a ballgame there.

Ballpark there is great and they have built a cool area around it with stuff to do. Not a big fan of St Louis as whole though…

Yep it's like they've forgotten everything they learned during this time. Why can't we just go back to this "Yordan please save us" style. What are they stupid?

Can't be! 2019 was one of the best offenses of all time!
