    7/5 GDT: Houston Astros (57-27) vs. Atlanta Braves (40-42); Dansby's Day Off Edition

    Houston Astros Lineup (57-27):
    Springer RF
    Altuve 2B
    Reddick LF
    Gattis C
    Gonzalez SS
    Gurriel 1B
    Bregman 3B
    Marisnick CF
    Musgrove P

    Atlanta Braves Lineup (40-42):
    Inciarte CF
    Phillips 2B
    FREEMAN 3B
    Kemp LF
    Markakis RF
    Adams 1B
    Flowers C
    Camargo SS
    Garcia P

    I like giving Dansby a day off with a heavy ground ball pitcher like Garcia pitching. I still would flip Adams and Flowers in the lineup to get a true L/R switch.

    My lord, the Astros sit their MPV candidate SS and replace him in the lineup with a RHed hitting CFer sporting an .853 OPS. Then they swap their LHed hitting catcher for a RHed hitting catcher with a career OPS vs LHers of .813.

    Things could get very ugly for Garcia tonight. The Astros are absolutely stacked with position player talent.

    Does anyone else hate Markakis batting 5th?

    Inciarte
    Markakis
    FF
    Kemp
    Adams
    Flowers
    Phillips
    Swanson

    You think it'd make us too suceptible to matchups at the end?

    Having Albies will help soon.

    Markakis
    Albies
    Freeman
    Kemp
    Adams
    Flowers
    Inciarte
    Swanson
    Pitcher

    I still wish we would trade Adams and give Kemp away. Markakis is a good 2018 Bridge, so Acuna can come up in April 2019.

    Yes. I would avoid 3 LHers in a row and probably go

    Inciarte
    Markakis
    Kemp
    Freeman
    Flowers
    Adams
    Phillips
    Swanson

    Perfect world has Markakis and Freeman 1-2, followed by Kemp and Adams, but this is the Braves we are talking about so a "speedy" Guy has to be hitting leaf off.

    I'm getting mad at the fact that we have to pay Kemp a ton of money for another 2 years

    Hoping some shifting leaves Freeman playing some SS tonight.

    This Nick Markakis interview they've played in the rain delay is the single most boring interview I've ever watched in my life.

    2 hits to start the game. The blowout is underway of Garcia doesn't figure it out quick.

    Must be nice to have a manager and an organization that studies and relies on advanced statistics.

    Man, I would love for Jamie to go 7 and only give up 2. If he could pull that off vs this team, his stock should go up
