Justttt AAA bit high.....

That hitch kills Vaughn' swing

195/667

Throw strikes 

Nice inning. Still a way to go.

Another good inning by Vasil will go a long way .Astro announcers blaming weather for Astro pitcher's ineffectiveness. Saying worst conditions in 2 years .

Nice Double play.

Seriously. Let Rojas/Vargas play third and Elko/Vargas 1st/DH. Plenty of at bats to go around.

That'll work ! Rack 'em up !

Yessssssssss a delay. Gooooooooood.

Call the game .

Yes!  Would be a shame for the 'pen to ruin this great effort.

Looking at my weather app it's gonna be a while it seems

Just call it. Looks real nasty out there or something.

Much more competitive this year...there's no doubt about that.

Last year felt like every other game was a blowout.

 

Some highlights of today's game.

All 5 RBI were with 2 outs.

4 for 13 with RISP.

2 stolen bases. Robert stole second just ahead of the Quero single to give the Sox their 5th run .

Wilson picked a runner off 2nd .

Vasil 2.1 hitless relief lowering ERA to 0.92.

6 walks and 5 K from the hitters.

O errors

One DP turned.

Quero now batting .340 with an OBP around .450 .

Meidroth 2 walks and a SB.

Robert 2 for 3 ,2 R, RBI, BB, SB

Sosa 2 RBI hit + a BB.

They are competitive because they are having much better at bats and the young guys are playing well. They'll still be fun even if Robert is traded, but do you, I guess.

He's still useful even if he doesn't hit.  He's good with a glove as well.

Most of the guys they're going to trade aren't even off the IL, yet. Robert's the only one playing right now, and I'll bet we can either replicate or replace the .493 OPS out of CF he was putting up 10 days ago.
