Bregman and Abreu will have a mega-ton of RBI chances this year
That's 4 straight losses to the yanks now and a 7-21 record at MMP going back to mid-August.

No way anybody thinks this correlates lol
Walks just killed us. That's it. End of story.
Also, how was that not blocking the plate?

Didn't imply that it did. Just tired of the suckage at home and don't care if it's a new season.Chrundle the Great said:cc10106 said:

Forgot about the home record. Need to keep an eye on that with respect to the offense.
All good otherwise, go get 'em tomorrow.

Anyone expecting much this year is setring themselves up for disappointment. I'll be rooting for another post season run but will be very surprised if we see it
Starting pitching is injured and not likely to be intact much of the season.
Bullpen has been discussed.
Lineup is aging with Altuve, Bregman, and Abreu. That, coupled with a bottom 5 farm system is a recipe for a championship window to slam shut in a hurry.
Every stadium should have this as part of their equipment. I don't think he even touched him.
They did get 13 hits at home so that's nice to see. Just couldn't get more runs in.
Oh well can't win them all.

Question...What if Dubon just slides right down the base path where Trevino is going to catch the ball?
Would that get the block call?

Cant win any of them (at home) apparently
I'm way more pissed about pitch hitting meyers than the pitching.
Framber erratic as ever, bullpen outside of Hader looked iffy.
Good to see the hits overall and Chas, Pena, Diaz hitting.
Do yourself a favor and remember it's March 28th, or lose your shtt. 161 games and seven months left

Mike Trout hit a bomb in his first AB of the year to give the Angels a 1-0 lead...

I couldn't watch, and I'm sure this has been discussed, but can I get some kind of explanation behind the thought process of PHing Singleton for Meyers? Are we just trying to **** the guy's confidence beyond all repair? And if someone says anything about lefty-righty, I'm gonna throw something.

Better pick something to throw

Was at the game and everyone was wtf are we doing hitting singleton for myers to only put in dubon
Singleton should only play if we have a huge lead, down by alot or Abreu needs a day off. Espada put Singleton and Montero into a leverage situation and it killed us.

Which is why they're a heavy favorite to go deep into the postseason.
It's Game 1.
Espada pretty much gets an F in his first game. Well maybe a D- because the lineup was good. Pulled every wrong in-game lever.

He didn't do anything controversial.
Framber looked awful. Who knows how bad it could have gotten if he was left in.
The Singleton move was about matchups. It didn't work. If it continues to not work, Singleton will be gone.
Agreed. We were lucky not to be down significantly when Framber left. 3 DPs in the first 3 innings, 2 with the bases loaded, is not normal. He's lucky he wasn't tagged for 8 or 10.AggiEE said:Wabs said:

Matchups? Singleton doesn't matchup against anyone well. He just had to go lefty vs right becuase. Singleton is the worst batter on the team
Framber has lost his last 6 starts at home and his last win was the no hitter. He's got some mental demons at MMP…to go with his normal mental issues
Singleton was a great story for about a 3 week stretch but I think it's more of an indictment of our lack of depth that he gets meaningful at bats

He has a pretty good eye and walks a lot.
The call was questionable but Singleton is going to be given some ABs to prove himself or he's gone since he's out of options.
If they really wanted to pinch hit with somebody in Jake's spot, Dubon would have been a better choice
Better eye or bat than dubon who went in the game? That's my issue, if dubon is coming in let him hit

He's pretty much a best case scenario it's a walk type of player. Take away the 2 HR game last year and he was 10-60 with 5 RBI, plus a sub .600 OPS
Less than ideal outcome but thank you Frio!! We love ya. Very grateful. TA Stros thread is out here regardless.
I didn't think Farmer was ever going to put his shirt on
