As someone just getting home from the game… 1) how the f was yordan out at home? He definitely beat the throw. Was his foot off the ground/didn't touch the plate? 2) how, if he was out, was that not blocking the plate? Do we have to specifically challenge that after they overturn it?
I don't see how you start Meyers in a playoff game. Your outfield should be Yordan, Dubon and Tucker. And then you have to go get a real CF this winter.
You may be downgrading from Meyers' range a bit but you are upgrading his noodle arm. Just trust Dubon way more at the plate.
And then whoever doesn't catch out of Diaz and Caratini is your DH. If the catcher gets hurt, you lose the DH for that game but that's the least of your concerns at that point.
It feels like there is something wrong with Altuve, like maybe he's hurt. I know he hits balls out of the zone, but he's been striking at really, really bad balls our of the zone this past month and it's affecting his power badly.
