After watching the Cubs expose my bullpen for its deficiencies, I sent 1B Erich Weiss back to AAA to bring an extra RP back up. The only reasonable choice was LHP Corbin Clouse as all other AAA RP's were tired also.

The Manager's meeting tonight was grim and Joel Hanrahan said he simply has no idea what to do, Kirby Yates has been horrible - yet insists to Hanrahan that he is "fine". Mgr. Hurdle seems ok going with Coach Hanrahan's suggestion we let it ride the rest of the week. I disagree, but will listen to my new pitching coach, as I don't have many other options right now. I have the whole coaching staff go over RP Jacob Lindgren's scouting report, Pitching coach Hanrahan quips "he looks like half of our bullpen already, just with better numbers!". We break up after notifying 1B Weiss by phone, and calling AAA to get Clouse sent up for tomorrows game here with Milwaukee.

Houston Astros flexed their hitting skills and DESTROYED Colorado in their own house, by the football score of 33-7. 2B Jose Altuve not only went 5-7, he also hit for the cycle. Altuve's .362 BA is leading MLB making him a strong MVP candidate.
