Mills: Altuve came in today and felt really good. Sitting out today for precaution. Seems to be fine however. Mills said he’s thrilled.

Bogusevic - 18 rbi in 200 plus abs. He is a huge drag on the offense. He needs to go to OKC permanently.

I love his story, I am amazed at what a great athlete he is, love that arm in RF, but he has been almost relentlessly stinky at the plate this year. There's no way around it.

I too want to believe in Bogusevic. But he's trying my patience. He's got very little to show for the number of AB's that he's had. He's given us way too many 4-3's.

For some reason I would rather get rid of CJ than Bogusevic. Just a feeling.
