Super Arencibia, just super...where is Cheerios??

Good question. Amazement by Wash continues.

Wtf was that from kouzmanoff?

Astros aren't touching Yu tonight...now if our lame offense can just get him a couple runs, he'll make it stand up.

I will say though I like Rios in the 3rd spot... beltre in the lineup or not.... please dont kill me

Love his speed when prince is up and the shift is on. Its harder to hold runners with that shift, plus the running threat might let prince see more fastballs. Another factor of this is that he'll almost always be hitting with a runner in front of him because the two guys in front of him have been great so far.

I may be wrong about this, but the 50 or so games I've seen Rios, I also thinks he handles the bat a little better as far as control goes. Not saying hes a better hitter, but I think he's able to control where he hits the ball a little better.

Like I said, dont kill me. Just observations

I thought from the moment we got Fielder that it should've been Rios/Fielder/Beltre... Rios isn't ideal in the 3 spot but neither is the current arrangement

Sadly, the biggest concern about Darvish pitching is wondering if we'll get shut out or not. The offense doesn't like to show up for Yu. I think 5 of his losses last year were 1-0 scores....

I called it...... Man this lineup blows dogs for quarters.

Christ. Almost entirely different lineup and we still can't hit shitty junk ballers.

Shut the fuck up.

OH FOR FUCKS SAKE SCORE HIM A RUN

 

[Broseidon]

Lets say Texas signs Morales to DH, and Moreland goes to LF. Would you start Choo or Rios in CF?

[terpsfball09]

He is carving us open. I'm not watching the game, I'm watching the game cast, but we cant make solid contact off him, and the two guys that did immediately got caught stealing because apparently he can hold runners as well

Choo - Rios stays in right
