For the game thread steal...where were you, Pharmabro?

Amazing the the Astros are batting 8 RH batters (plus one SH) against righty Castillo. Hope that bodes well for us.
Colton Gordon is a lefty. Wilson is starting 6 rh batters and the 3 switch hitters. Jump on Gordon early and often, please!
...and keep our K's to a minimum today, all right?
Mariners will hit 4 HR's this game.

Colton Gordon to Make Another Start on Sunday

Houston Astros manager Joe Espada said that left-handed pitching prospect Colton Gordon will make another start on Sunday against the division-rival Seattle Mariners in place of the injured Ronel Blanco (elbow). Gordon, the team's No. 14 prospect per MLB Pipeline, could see extended run in Houston's starting rotation with Blanco likely facing an extended absence. The 26-year-old southpaw was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land on Thursday and will be making his third big-league start after allowing six earned runs on 12 hits (two home runs) while walking two and striking out 10 in 9 2/3 innings in his first two starts against the Kansas City Royals and Tampa Bay Rays. The 6-foot-4, 225-pounder doesn't throw hard but has produced high spin rates. His sweeping slider is particularly effective against lefties, but he'll face a tough matchup this weekend against the first-place Mariners.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

No it shouldn't. Astros have a weak offense and serving up a bum rookie. Just work counts, get on base and come through with a couple big dingers and one clutch 2-run 2b. Should win 7-2 tbh

The thing I don't get is why they have Garver and Solano hitting 5th, 6th like they're some sort of good hitters?

Should hardly be playing... let alone hitting there.

fuck yea! there we go Garv!

Garver is a good hitter. He needs more PAs. Polanco should be playing 2b until Cole Young comes up, then 3b. While Garver gets more DH starts. Solano, yes, he's dog shit and shouldn't even be on this team let alone hitting 6th
