The only good news is Springer left under his own power. He went to the clubhouse without any assistance and didn't seem like he was in dire pain.

Hopefully a bruise and not anything broken.

Looked like it hit his shoulder and ricocheted to his hand.  Hoping for just a bruise.

Another broken hand with the kind of season he's having would be a fucking gut punch.

HIt the arm first then ricocheted to his hand.  Hopefully that took some of the velo off of it.

COME THE FUCK ON GATTIS... Works the count to 3-0 then swings and hits a lazy fly. I'm glad it drove in a run, but fuck. Maybe try and do some real damage?

It looked like it was ball four outside. That would have driven in a run, too.

Well that felt like a wasted opportunity, although 2 runs is better than zero.

Man, fuck these guys. I didn't see the play, but dotting players because they're hot and/or beating you to "set the tone" or "send a message" is some pussywaffle bullshit, if indeed that's what happened. I seem to recall a few instances in which that seemed to be the case this season.

Hope y'all's injury mitigating theories prove accurate.

Didn't look all that bad.  From the CF camera it looked like it hit his tricep and caromed away.  Dugout camera showed it glanced off his arm and hit the back of his hand, not terribly unlike the pitch that broke his hand in 2015.

It was gut-wrenching only because of the possible implications of losing the guy hitting 21 HRs.

Olson singles to RF, his first hit of the season
Healy...0-2...a little chin music makes it 1-2...strikes out swinging on another really good curveball
Davis...0-2...1-2...2-2...strikes out swinging

2-0 Astros

I didn't realize until I looked today that George is 2nd in the AL in HR, just 3 behind Aaron Judge.

Springer gets hits in his first a bat...right at his chin...off the shoulder and hits his left hand...trainers out a long time...

Stop it at the right moment in second 19 and it looks like it hit the big knuckles not the flat back of the hand.

Depends on what it's for.  If you can get Archer for him, of course.  I wouldn't trade him for a middle reliever.  Anything in between, I'd have to see the deal.  But he's certainly not untouchable.

I'm not sure what Hinch's motivation was, other than giving the bullpen a rest but damn...

Top 9:

Gattis lines to shallow CF
Marwin singles up the middle
Yuli lines a single to CF, Marwin to 2b
Bregman strikes out on 3-2
Aoki grounds out

Mid 9, 12-9, Devo coming on for the save.

Diaz is on the roster and it wasn't close. Things escalated quickly, and once a Feliz was ready, he didn't exactly slam the door.

Astros with a 4-game sweep to pick up their 50th win..
