Well at least Mancini is playing, but batting 7th? And I'm guessing Jake has blackmail on the whole coaching staff at this point?

Jake exits after 4 2/3, had cramping issues.

Pena day off, Tucker back in, Vasquez catching, Jake in center, no Chas (wtf)


We're we just told. JV is a fly ball pitcher. Cleveland has a big outfield. We can't play Yordan/Mancini in left.

Guess that's not true anymore.

Vazquez and Tucker getting in there today is good.

Mancini has not had success in very limited ABs against Quantrill so maybe that's the reasoning around batting him lower?

It's flat out dumb to not start Chas vs this guy.

Feel like he's gonna produce quickly all the way up to AAA. Hope he's got what it takes to take that last step to the show. Wouldn't be surprised if he's knocking on the door in 2 years.

Everytime Meyers steps into the batters box, it is a wasted AB. Dude is beyond lost right now. Him taking playing time over anybody at this point is a crime.

He hit that one ball to left last night and it stopped way short of the wall. It looked like he had swung with everything he had. He clearly doesn't have strength in his surgically repaired shoulder.

Or he just missed the ball slightly and didn't get all of it.

Franmil Reyes DFA'd. He was one of the next big things a couple years ago. He's also OP for an average player on the show

Wasn't he a former number 1 prospect or something? Cleveland got him in the Bauer trade.

This is a great lookback at Altuve's postseason HR's. So many of these were massive headshots to the opposing team, especially the Yankees.

AKA 13-0

The HR off Maeda is my favorite. That was a HUGE blow to the dodgers after Kershaw gave up the 3 run lead to tie and then they got it back. The park was so loud on that HR!

Of course the HR off Chapman is awesome, but I love the Maeda one more.

Agree, both were incredibly clutch. Walkoff series win over Yankees to go the the WS. The other was arguably part of the best World Series game in history. It was definitely the most incredible WS game for the Astros.

Pretty predictable. Once Yordan was up with nobody on and 2 outs, they'll always walk him. Then Bregs grounds out. Bregman has no business batting 4th.

Predictable? We have 15 runs in the last 2 games.

the GiDP is an issue with Bregman hitting in the top 4 in the order -- he hits a bunch of room service grounders to the left side

Exactly. And Bregman doesn't have the power numbers for a clean up hitter.
