    Does anyone here think that bringing Marisnick up is a locker room move to help the clubhouse transition with the Osuna deal? I know Jake is a very likeable guy in the clubhouse, lots of guys in the clubhouse aren’t very thrilled about the Osuna deal!

      I kind of had that though lingering as well. Jake brings a lot of enthusiasm to the locker room that is for sure.

        Who is arguing? Folks just making conversation.

                  We need him to step up while everyone else is out. Glad to see him swinging well. Nice to see Jake 2 for 2 also!

                      There have been several publications about Verlander speaking out about it! Look back at the tweet Verlander posted after the Danny Vasquez incident. He's not the only one though, Altuve respose is "its OK if I dont know what to say". Hinch's comments about an "emotional transition". There has been more than 1 article, but I'm at work and cant dig all those up now!

                      I hope this doesn't mess up the clubhouse!

                      Verlander and Lance McCullers tweeted their disgust earlier this year when surveillance video emerged of a former Astros minor leaguer assaulting his girlfriend.

                          Every player in the lineup has at least one hit today!

                            It seems like the same article being circulated by multiple media outlets. I wouldnt put much stock in anything the national media says about the Astros. I wonder what they were saying when the yanks aquired Aroldis Chapman form the Reds under the same circumstances?

                              I couldn't remember if the Chapman thing happened before he went to the Yankees, or the Cubs.

                              If right before they cubs, they couldn't care less, they won a World Series as a result!
