    RHP - Adam Warren, (5-4 3.63 ERA)

    VS.

    LHP - Dallas Keuchel, (8-3 2.35 ERA)

    NOTE: As effective as Warren has been this year, he hasn't done to well on the road. He's 2-3 with a 4.91 ERA in 7 road starts this season, compared to 3-1 with a 2.21 ERA in 6 starts at home.

    CF - Young
    3B - Headley
    DH - Rodriquez
    1B - Teixeira
    RF- Beltran
    LF - Pirela
    C - Murphy
    SS - Drew
    2B - Petit

    The Astros are a vastly improved team, going to be a tough series.

    If the Yankees can walk away with a split I'd be okay.

    _______________________

    Numbers don't look promising....Astros also exceptionally better at home and can score runs.
    First impression, Yanks better score a few runs facing a pretty tough pitcher.
    Tough assignment.
    Obviously it would be a big help if Warren pitches a good game but let's be fair and give the him some slack with this one.
    Just keep us in the game.
    And 2/4 at Houston is NOT bad here and now.
    I'm looking for 4/7 combined at Houston and Anaheim and I won't get annoyed if they go 3-4 but first things first- WIN tonight.

    Go Yanks!

    Getting the first game is usually a nice table setter.

    Spring training lineup posted in OP.

    You've got to feel bad for Warren with this lineup but what the hell, lets see what happens.

    I saw the lineup and thought: :nerd: :smiley-bigsadeyes: :smiley-dizzy: WTF - :smiley-hmm::doh::confused:

    It's going to be an interesting series with the Astro's 1st in HR's with 107, the Yanx 2nd in Hr's with 98.

    Astro's tho' have the 2nd best Team B'Avg in both Leagues, with KC leading all with .002 points more in B'Avg than the Stro's......

    Keuchel is going to be hard to beat, especially at home, where the Stro's have a .622 Win Pctg., and Keuchel has a 6-0 record at Home, while Batters hit .188 against Him at Home, and Visiting Teams OBP. is .248....

    Yet, they can be had, ......... more on the road, but even at Home.....

    It was a blast to see the last game in the Astrodome, and 1st game in Enron (Minute Maid) Park. The new park is a novelty, HUMID as HELL, but such is the norm for Houston to Jacksonville....("riding on the City of New Orleans").....

    Humidity and Temperatures in Houston, is definitely a Home Field advantage......

    team..... have mercy on these Yankees.

    I don't know what Joe is smoking but the top 5 in the lineup better come up big or we're in trouble.

    And Joe West is still a skummy ump.
    Fat-chin-neck dooshbag.
    Always has a "problem".
    The guy is a menace.
    "Strike three" to Petit was well below the knees.

    You can blame the umps from now until
    'Doomsday', the result ain't gonna change.

    You've got to feel bad for this kid Warren, I swear its as if Girardi set him up to fail by fielding a lineup where only one guy is hitting over 265. Its a damn joke. But I guess this will justify sending him to the pen.

    Nobody is hitting shit so can we stop complaining about the lineup. Like Didi was going to be the huge difference maker.

    Agreed. Dirty business. Warren still does not
    deserve the demotion. WE ALL KNOW
    WHO DOES!

    ...Murphy had NO chance to get Altuve at 2B...and now he's at 3B after the throwing error.

    ...the line up Joe penciled in has little if anything to do with what Warren does on the mound.

    Not a terrible outing by Warren, probably got a bit rattled out there last inning. Offense facing a pretty good pitcher. Three errors, Jesus Christ.

    Vic seriously I'm not talking about Didi, you don't rest 2 of your most productive players on the SAME night. It was just stupid.
