Wow no Altuve? Guess I’m not watching the game…
does Mills have some written code that says “I must use different line-up everyday.” Can anyone point to a stretch of more than 2-3 games where the line-up was the same?
If Sanchez and/or Bourgeois are going to garner trade attention, surely won’t amount to much if they’re constantly on the bench. At the same time, I can’t see sitting CJ, Wallace, Barmes and Pence in order to showcase those guys. Although, they haven’t gotten it done all season so what’s the point?
