Today's Lineups
It feels really weird to not type George Springer's name in the leadoff spot. Took a few seconds to sink in that someone else would be leading off the game today for the Astros. Oh well, Springer is getting a well deserved day off and surely will be back playing tomorrow night against Kansas City.
Note: Angel Hernandez is the Home Plate umpire for this afternoon's game, so things could get interesting...
