31 pitches thru 3. Not good
We aren't gonna beat this guy on pitch count … need to get some hits and drive him off the mound

Making hard contact but everything is right at someone. That should change.

Man, really need JV to keep putting up 0s.


Even with JV, that's a tall order. These guys can hit.

Altuve needs to make this pitcher work
Altuve is who he is. My issue is putting Dubon 2nd, who also is aggressive. If your plan is working ABs and driving up pitch counts, can't have them 1 and 2. If you don't care about it, though, sure, let's roll

Keep hitting hit it hard and putting the ball in play. 5 of our groundouts have had xBA of .370 or greater. They'll start finding the outfield grass soon

So far a little unlucky. That's 3 groundouts with an xBA of .450, .450 and .580.

I don't think this guy sees the lineup for a third time. They're on him tonight, just missing the holes.

You guys can tell Altuve he needs to work the count all you want, but that is not who he is. He is an aggressive hitter that ambushes pitches. If you tell him to all of a sudden be a patient hitter that looks for his pitch to hit, you are killing who he has been, and I for one have been pretty damn satisfied with his results.

Altuve is so damn impatient. He's not even swinging at good pitches. Frustrating

We made decent contact in the first inning but everything since then has been pretty weak

He is capable of hitting the ball from anywhere to anywhere. I am glad he is who he is

Maybe, but he doesn't need to try to ambush a pitch over his head that becomes an easy rollover to SS.

Swing away Tuve!

Yep. He's seen two total pitches for two outs. Last night he went deeper in Counts and found pitches to hit

Its been 13 years. Time to accept future HOF Altuve for who he is.

Every postseason we get posts like that. Used to be about how far he stands from the plate.

Yep. Wasn't really close either. Perfect pitch right on the bottom part of the zone.
