This game has all the makings of a 3 hit, 2 of them infield variety performance, esp after winning the first two.

This is the weakest 6-9 we have to offer



I'm afraid AJ Reed is going to have a rough game. He seems to have trouble with the breaking pitches that finish near his back foot. Archer's slider could be a problem for him.


ETA: Of course, Archer does have a HR problem so that pitch could slide right into Reeds swing path.

Root sports crew has gone overboard with the cheesy sound effects the past couple games

When you get a hanging breaking ball up in the zone and you are down in the count with 2 strikes, and it results in a K looking, your days are numbered.

Tuve made a soft liner bounce for a chance at a DP

Bregs and Altuve missed hangers in their first at bats, too. That's the way Archer gets hurt, so we have to take advantage of those.

Altuve being Altuve

Castro being Castro. That lazy fricker is a Sunday catcher at best

Depends. A walk would be nice.

Tag a hard thrower just once.

You have to rattle his cage. Make him pitch from the stretch at least.

Castro's runs, IMO

If he doesn't lazily try to back hand a breaking ball instead of blocking it up, runner not moving second to third on routine ground ball.

Yes, Bregman botched it, but that base Castro gave up may have been the difference.
