A couple of observations:
The young players are going to make mistakes, and I'm ok with that. They just need to learn from them. I'd say Correa made up for his baserunning blunder when he grabbed the chopper up the middle in the 5th (I think), spun around and got the guy at first.
Speaking of the Correa baserunning -- I think that was on Pettis. And, like irishpete said, I think the Astros have seen something about baserunning and cautiousness and they are trying something different.
Also, it's great to see Altuve coming around like we all knew he would.
I've been impressed with Yuli the last couple games. He's looking like a player over at 1st. And, the last two games, he's hit the ball hard. He's had a few at-'em balls, and it is just a matter of time before they start getting through.
Bregman needs to be more selective at the plate. Yes, he walked early in the game, but some of his other ABs were just atrocious. He kept hacking at that slider or curve ball in the dirt.
Overall, you have to be please with the 6-4 record. Seattle's starting pitching is pretty good, and to be 5-2 against them is encouraging -- especially since they are considered contenders as well. Also, the offense looks like it's coming to life. I'm curious to see how the Astros do against the A's and Angels. I kind of like the west coast road trips because I can actually watch the games with the wife and kid in bed.
Oh, and I love #TOFA.
