Yuli with his second hit against the Astros.
I think behind Springer, I am going to miss the crap out of Yuli.
No matter what!

It's 100% Dubon's job to lose
Dubon is going to start at 2B every Framber & Brown start while playing CF every Urquidy and Javier.

It's all awash since I don't think he'll out produce Abreu but I don't think Yuli is done.

I don't think he'll be a batting champ but I also don't think he'll bat .220. Wouldn't shock me if he bounces back and he's a borderline AS.

I'm going to be pretty miserable on here if that happens

He's a no-time AS. I really wish he would have gotten picked in 2021. But the Astros were basically saying F U to the AS game.

Agreed on Dubon being the starting 2B til Tuve gets back.

I was at the game on sunday when they let Hensley start at 2nd and he looked so out of place. I bet Bannon could make the roster and back up Dubon. He looked good as a fielder and had nice at bats.

He looked out of place how? Because he's tall or did he misplay something? He got almost 600 innings at 2nd over 21-22.

I wonder how many folks will show up at the Astros Team Store to buy gold WS gear at midnight. Those poor employees.

Tonight will most likely be the highlight of any Angels fan's season, and we're still in Spring Training.

FYI. Have some extra outfield grass tickets for Astros vs Space Cowboys on Monday 27th if anyone interested. $20 a piece would cover costs.

Good to hear baseball is being flexible on this. I hope one of that the postseason doesn't require the clock or at worst it's longer with more ability to reset the clock if needed.

I like they are getting feedback and being flexible but this "well we shouldn't do it in the playoffs" is horse*****

If they want to gimmick up the game with a ManfredMan and a pitch clock and funky restrictions on where defenders can stand, don't tell me it's for the betterment of the game in the regular season but then ditch it like a Lubbock co-ed with the clap the minute playoffs start. It's it's good for 162 games and deciding who gets into the playoffs it's good enough to keep in the playoffs. If not then why are you doing it in the first place?

Because a 162 game season and the postseason are different animals 99% of the time. I can deal with some rushing, miscues, auto strikes/balls, etc in the regular season. I want to see the best of the best when it's all on the line.

DeRosa earlier on the WBC pregame said Tucker is not starting tonight because an ankle tweak and foul off his shin but do not fret, he is available if needed.

Manfred's adjustments.

Astros start every inning with 2 outs on offense.
Yankees, Red Sox, Mets and Dodgers can take a player from any other team during the season at no charge.
If Aaron Judge hits a ball in the air out of the infield it is ruled a home run. If he hits an actual home run, it counts as 3 home runs.
