Astros lineup Tuesday vs. Mets
Jordan Schafer, who has reached base in 23 consecutive games to start the season — two shy of the club record — is out of the starting lineup Tuesday, with Carlos Lee returning for the first time since Friday because of a sprained ankle.
Here’s the lineup:
2B Jose Altuve
SS Jed Lowrie
LF J.D. Martinez
1B Carlos Lee
3B Matt Downs
RF Brian Bogusevic
CF Justin Maxwell
C Chris Snyder
P J.A. Happ
Brian McTaggart
I could get used to Downs at 3B. But could you imagine Chris Johnson coming off the bench with runners on in the late innings as a pinch hitter? Yikes.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That’s the kind of baseball we need E V E R Y D A Y !!!!!!!!!
