Son of a bitch: is Diaz limping?
I remember all the good times me 'n Miller enjoyed
Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy

I guess Hinch just wanted another RH hitter. But he’s got a defensive nightmare that side.

Well, he’s already got Brantley, Reddick, and Fisher in. Probably wanted at least one lefty pinch hit option late, if needed. That’s my guess anyway.

What a crappy run. Without that first wild pitch, Pearce is forced at third on that hopper to Bregman, and the inning looks completely different.

Until Altuve or Diaz are back, the right side of the infield should be Kemp and Yuli.

It was just off the plate. Not a strike, but not terribly egregious either.

4 of 6 is perfectly acceptable.

The 2 wins in this series came with many runs being scratched across.  Good to win when you're not mashing.

Even better to start mashing again.

ETA: this game was a pile of crap

Altuve could be back Tuesday per McT article so that could be the roster move for Díaz.

But what about tmw's game?
IFers:
Bregman
Correa
Yuli
White
Kemp

Awfully thin bench.  <insert Tyler White comment here>

Straw not in the lineup tonight...call him up for however many games before Altuve comes back, just to have a full roster?  They don't have a backup IF on the 40.
