Cano, Perez, and Flaherty almost certainly unavailable tonight.  That leaves Coulombe, Baumann, Hall, Fuji, Lopez, and Webb for tonight.  Hall threw 18 pitches last night, and Lopez threw 6.

Javier likes the longball so let's give him a few today.

We likely will in that bandbox. Surprisingly, Houston has a pretty bad home record though. 38-39. Not as easy without the trashcans.

I feel like we're playing with house money but we might as well get the sweep. This team plays to win every night and the Rays aren't going away. Hopefully this is Bradish's last regular season start. That would be nice.

They even changed the batters eye to help their left handed hitters.  I thought you had to get MLB approval to make changes during the season, but I guess not.

You’d probably need MLB permission before employing trash and as a pitch stealing/relaying mechanism, but they just went for it. Astros do things differently.

The Orioles get another shot to get to 40 games over .500.  Hopefully the third is the charm.

Put Westburg at 2B and that should be our playoff lineup VS RHP.

They are going to play Frazier a lot against righties, including the post season.

Yep, it is the Astros.

 

The interesting thing to me, is when Hyde was doing one of his pre-game pressers, he was asked what he thought of the Astro's changing the batters eye, he did not know anything about it.  You would think the opposing teams should be notified.

I’ll be watching this from Fish Tales. Sipping on expensive, but delicious, grapefruit crushes.

Fun place to watch a game. OC peeps are way into the O’s right now, it’s pretty sweet. That side bar usually has more degenerates who are actually focused on baseball, but not sure it’s open during the day.

My wife is always trying to get me to like grapefruit but it's never happened. Maybe it's because it tastes like throw up.

I think that is the first time Altuve and Tucker have not gotten on base all series. Feels that way.
