So grateful that our star player has a sexy swimsuit model as our mascot instead of a brother with the same name who jacks off random rookies in the locker room with his friends.

I'd say Morton with McHugh in relief.

Springer CF
Reddick RF
Altuve 2B
Correa SS
Gattis DH
McCann C
Yuli 1B
Marwin LF
Bregman 3B

At least that's how I'd line them up

Jeez...Good luck Chris. Go get 'em

Has there been anything else said about reddick? I'd expect he'll be ready to go, but the injury has seemed to linger longer than expected

Thought I heard that he would be back. Thought he was technically able to go Saturday in BOS but they were being cautious.

If not put Maybin in CF and switch him and Bregman in the lineup and George plays RF.

I wouldn't expect to see Reddick start against Sale, but otherwise it's hard to argue with this. With this much talent, it doesn't much matter in which order they bat.

With a lefty on the mound if Beltran is in the lineup that's a bad sign imo.

I'm not a huge gattis fan but he needs to be DHing against sale imo.

Also exactly why I think 3 catchers is a given this series

Because he slashes .214/.214/.286 in 14 career at bats against Sale.

soooo 6 points better than Sale's BAA?

Maybin bats .143 against him...

Reddick bats .315 against lefties which is by FAR the best he has done against lefties in his career. so most of those stats vs Sale shouldnt even count.

if healthy, you start Reddick with zero hesitation.

Not saying that's what I would do, but it's what I'm guessing Hinch would do.

Hell, I'm just hoping Reddick is healthy and can shake off the rust quickly.

not necessarily...Sipp would travel with the team even if not on the roster.

Gregerson is going to be on the roster. Might as well stop worry about that.

Worried about him on the roster? No

Company tickets just came in mail. Really wanted to just hide them in my truck rather than figure out which customers to send.

I did have the president in town today and looks like I'll get the ALCS tickets which is nice. Have a baby due on 10/26 so it'd be about right that the stros make the series this year. 2005 I spent the two Houston Home games in Chicago for work and was left holding tickets to game 5.
