Astros: SP Brad Peacock LF Grossman 2B Altuve C Castro 1B Wallace DH Carter RF Krauss 3B Dominquez CF Barnes SS Villar Twins: SP Mike Pelfrey 2B Dozier RF Herrmann DH Mauer 1B Morneau C Doumit LF Arcia CF Thomas 3B Carroll SS Bernier Things to think about: 1. Think about the Astros... They have played some bad baseball these past two games... We may think things are bad in Minnesota but things are much worse west of Galveston. 2. Think about Bernier... In the lineup at SS again... It seems like Gardy might like this guy. 3. Think about Colabello... I think about him a lot... He has tons of power but he isn't making enough contact. At his age... he has a short window to prove himself... If you have a short window... It stands to reason that you may press and try to do too much. He has no time to adjust to MLB Pitching... He has to do it right now and he isn't in the lineup. 4. Think about Pelfrey... I think today is a test... Here's the Test... If he is throwing well... The Astros will prove to be no problem... If the Astros provide a problem for Pelfrey... He still has work to do. Let's see what happens. 5. Think about Brevity... I struggle with Brevity... I go on and on... I always have... Mainly... I am confused by Brevity... For example... Shouldn't Monosyllabic be a much shorter word and for that matter... Shouldn't Abbreviate be much shorter as well.
