  1. The call on Yainer was ridiculous and worst of the night but arrighetti got multiple calls off the plate
  2. That was useful to save any chance arrighetti might be able to get through 5
  3. Man I’m tired of arrighetti throwing an inning’s worth of pitches to every one of their batters and we’re going 3 up, 3 down on 9 pitches
  4. Took a while to set it up but beautiful pitch call and execution to get that K (after arraez looked silly on that exact same pitch on his first swing in his first AB)
  5. Bullpen better be ready to go this series. gonna be a lot of pitches thrown by our staff
  6. If Arrighetti can locate that high fastball, he may have something tonight
  7. If Darvish was smart he would IBB Yordan here
  8. I love Dave Sims. i also love the brawl we’re going to get in Arlington this weekend
  9. Idk why San Diego would even take the field tonight especially countering that lineup with Darvish
  10. I read this 10 times and don’t get it. i think you meant: Normal deal is a 3 run lead if you start out with a clean inning/no one on. So, tying runner is in the hole. but yeah, the idea is that you get more of a cushion to save a game if you come in and clean up a mess you inherited.
  11. Schedule makers get lazy/have an “oh shit” moment at the end of the season? 5 series (1/3rd of the schedule) from this past weekend repeat next weekend Tigers/Orioles Astros/Angels Rangers/Mariners D-Backs/Brewers Mets/Phillies
  12. Correct still annoyed ort/Ferguson didn’t do their job and we had to use Hader in the first place with the Padres up next
  13. It’s like this for every live entertainment event these days. Sports, music, comedy. Doesn’t matter but yeah, the football program of the flagship university in the 2nd largest populated (and one of the fastest growing) state in the country that has been starved for a quality product for a decade and half is going to have some sticker shock
  14. The amount of underclassmen talent we have at the skill positions is terrifying if you’re the rest of the SEC/college football. Arch is no dummy
  15. Wow Roof is open at NRG. Hopefully the Astros take a lesson from this. did MLB cause them to stop opening it mid game or is that something g the team decided to stop doing years ago?
  16. 8:40 Arrighetti/Darvish 8:40 Brown/King 5:40 Valdez/Cease tasty Glad we miss Musgrove
  17. I heard ‘27. i hope it’s ‘26. the good news is every year it’s used in the minors that’s that many more guys who have known nothing else in pro baseball by the time they get to The Show. you'll have a long tail of old timers like JV but I imagine you’ll quickly reach over half of the players that are used to it by the time they introduce it in the majors. Of course, this the players, not the umps a lot of which are around longer than most of the players haven alive. i have no idea what’s been happening on the ump union front
  18. When is MLB going to make a check swing a reviewable call? it’s a real problem that’s already had postseason implications I did, at least, hear at the Express game the other night that they are bringing the ABS challenge system to spring training next year so that’s a positive development
