Bregman at leadoff is an interesting look
I am pro Breggy leading off.

I guess it's a good thing we missed on Yariel Rodrguez. Almost a 6 ERA and there is nothing "unlucky" about it.

Perfect through three on less than 40 pitches, naturally.
Enough mix of good pitches for strikes, balls called strikes, and Astros swinging at pitches they shouldn't

No worries about not hitting with RISP so far.

Make this guy walk you, boys. He is begging for walks.

Hard to do when literally anything could be called a strike.
Sure, there have been some bad calls, but they are swinging at some clearly bad balls.

Yordan is 2-0 and swings at a breaking ball below the zone. Dubon swung at 2 easy, easy balls that even the ump couldn't miss.

The dude is wild and they are helping him out a ton.

Our batting order looks like a spring training game.

Off day for Altuve? Hurt? Still cooling off from yesterday's eruption?

Looks like the shadows may be a problem right now. A lot of uncomfortable swings from both teams.

That graphic. In one month, you have JRR 5-1 with 54 IP. Everyone should do that math and get back to me when you figure out what that means. And figure out if there is any chance on God's green Earth that anyone with an arm could manage that feat ever again.

With how good he's been lately, I'm hoping that was a "you better get him right then" kind of inning and then he locks in.

Hopefully it's the toe and not Espada sending Tuve a message and protecting his umpires.

HB doing a good job matching him and making it a duel, but needs another efficient inning or two to try to get us through 6

Never gone more than four innings and now he's perfect through four on 43 pitches. These guys should stop and appreciate their remarkable accomplishment.

To be fair, Rodriguez had only thrown 16 innings before today. No one really knows what his ceiling could be. I'm sure there's a reason we were in on him.

Now get some runs in the 5th dammit.

The whole league was basically after him. The dude is really talented. Don't let his numbers in a really small sample size fool you

Canada better not get a no hitter in America's pastime on Canada Day. We moved a team out of Montreal to DC for less.

We must not want to get a sunburn the way we are going back to the dugout as fast as we can.
