Damn that was fun to watch! This might be the type of game that people point to as "boring" because there aren't gobs of homers but man that was great. The two starters throwing slime in a tight game was great to watch but Jolly Rogers coming in and keelhauling through the 8th was fantastic.

Petition to boot Numer3 off this board for his shameful pun.

It's a long season. I have no problem with resting some guys against Verlander and a hot Astros team on a rain-delay-shortened-schedule. I get that watching them write off the game before it even starts is tough to get behind as a fan but given their options I think it was the right move. We'll see when we start this homestand anyway.

Yeah I think you're right, he just looks like a 1st baseman to me for some reason... Thanks for the correction.

Guess I just assume he's a good enough athlete to passable man 1st... Maybe he just looks like a 1st baseman to me, thanks for the correction.

Hopefully Duffey can settle down a bit in AAA. Cave was an obvious pick, absolutely no need for him this early in the season. I'm sure Astudillo can play competent RF if need be, or shuffle Cron to 3rd and slot Marvin in right with Astudillo or Cruz at 1st. Plenty of options to field a decent lineup while also carrying 13 arms.

Perhaps he was still thinking today would be a "Bullpen day" and wanted to save Rogers arm to get a few innings out of him? Not sure bringing him in to face one batter would affect that though...

Duffey was rooouuugghhhh, looked shook out there. Hildy had an uncharacteristically bad inning as well... But those things will happen to a middling bullpen like ours, I'm kind of glad they fell apart against a team like Houston instead of a much more beatable squad like anyone in the AL Central.
