These are the DCTF Computer rankings for our coverage area teams for Week 6: 6A #2 North Shore #3 CE King #22 Summer Creek #23 CE King #48 Barbers Hill #89 Kingwood #106 Crosby #143 Humble #241 Channelview

116 K's to just 24 BB's in 447 AB's is certainly not ideal for the leadoff spot. The power and total hits are very good. OBP is .325 along with the batting average of .277. Those are quality numbers. I agree he has had a good season. I just like my leadoff guy to have more BB's and an OBP around .340 or higher. That's just me.

Call me old school but I never like having my lead off hitter having the worst walk to strikeout ratio. In 447 AB's, he has walked just 24 times while striking out 116 times which is 3rd most on the team. Of all the everyday guys his strikeout ratio is the worst. To me, the lead off guy shouldn't lead in that category. With that said, we have no other choice to put at leadoff. Sadly, Pena is the best choice for that spot.

For college football, I have always been a big proponent for no rankings until at least Week 4. When rankings are what puts you in the playoffs (unlike high school) then no team should have a "head start" at beginning of season. I never have issue with preseason rankings in high school because they have zero bearing on the season.

Houston is starting reliever AJ Blubaugh in Gm 1 tomorrow. Likely Brown in Gm 2 and Wesneski in Gm 3 if necessary.

As of tomorrow, Jose Altuve will have played more postseason games than: The New York Mets Baltimore Orioles Cincinnati Reds Pittsburgh Pirates Minnesota Twins Toronto Blue Jays Kansas City Royals Arlington Rangers Tampa Bay Rays Anaheim Angels Milwaukee Brewers San Diego Padres

I'm considering that Lamar game myself but I had promised my tickets for that game to some friends of my wife.

What direction would that be? Central Liberty County?

This is our lightest week of the season pertaining to the amount of games for this week. Normally we have 50+ games but just 31 this week. Depending on my health, this is my Week 6 schedule: Thursday Lufkin at New Caney pregame meal at Dave's Hot Chicken Friday The River Bowl, Deweyville at Evadale pregame meal at Black Gold BBQ in Buna Saturday CE King at Atascocita pregame meal at Pappacita's Where will you be this week?

Projected Astro roster for Wild Card series: C (2): Diaz, Vazquez IF (5): Walker, Altuve, Pena, Paredes, Allen OF/DH (6): Alvarez, Smith, Spence, Trammell, Velazquez, Wade Jr. SP (4): Brown, Wesneski, Lambert, Pecko RP (7): Hader, Abreu, Blubaugh, Ullola, VanWey, Sousa, King Leaves 2 P spots left: P (2): Okert (IL), Blanco, Imai, Teng, Santa Other IF/OF/C in consideration: Barrosa, Delgado, Price, Loperfido

Yes, it definitely needs updating. Off the top of my head, these are the coverage area teams that currently have contracts with Texan Live: Barbers Hill (still kind of count them) Channelview Crosby CE King Humble ISD (Atascocita, Humble, Kingwood, Kingwood Park, Summer Creek) New Caney ISD (New Caney, Porter, West Fork) Montgomery ISD (Montgomery, Lake Creek) Splendora Spring Woods Nederland Huffman Silsbee East Chambers All those contracts are for home and away games. With Nederland doing their own home games via student led stream, I don't see TL being with them next season.

No games are done at Stallworth for whatever reason. Sometimes Vype but that's hit or miss. It's like the Goose Creek district wants no games streamed there except if visitors have a broadcast entity and then they are not very accommodating. Trust me, I have been there to broadcast games in the past. I know TL no longer has a contract with them.

If I am over this infection by Thursday and feeling up to it, I'll be at Randall Reed for Lufkin/NC. At worst I'll watch it on TL.
