  1. Chas has stunk this year. He’s also been in and out of the lineup with a hamsting and dumbass-itis (Espada). Diaz/loperfido or Dubon/altuve/Pena Bregman/Alvarez/chas/Meyers/tucker is just fine as a lineup/ with Caratini as a part time guy catching 2 times a week. If your bottom 3 are Dubon or Loperfido, Pena and Meyers with that top 6 you are probably just fine if you can pitch at all. the Singleton experience needs to die.
  2. Jake’s 3 run Hr is the difference in the game you idiot
  3. Espada trying to make Abreu’s arm fall off, right?
  4. So, Montero is pretty clearly the 6th best bullpen arm now right?
  5. Tied in run differential now. Pissed away 8 so far.
  6. Maybe not by the time this game is over!
  7. Astros have best run differential in division.
  8. That should be a hit. Catching that ball was not an ordinary effort play. Outstanding to glove it and then everything went to shit (for the O’s). I think he thought he could get a double play. Tag and then throw to first. When he missed his brain just locked up.
  9. Ha. Some amazeball plays this inning.
  10. Look man, we’ve got 9 more outs to get with the soft underbelly of the bullpen all that’s available. I don’t love our chances here still.
  11. Jake! maybe a 5th Of. That one doesn’t count though. Reasons.
  12. O’s 3 hits that inning were 88, 89 and 92. Not quite as bad as I thought but combined with shitty launch angle on 2 of them you’d not expect that to be a rally.
  13. Another fucking should have been a double play ball. This game is so fucked.
  14. Fucking more soft contact bullshit.
  15. So far. His babip is ridiculously unsustainable. I like him ok but he’s got to get his K% below 30 if he’s going to stick.
  16. Loperfiso strikes out so much not because of his swing and miss but because he watches a metric shit ton of pitches right down the middle.
  17. He got squeezed and 3 of his 6 hits were dinks. Way better than his line and now I assume his career is over the way things have been trending.
  18. Jake! I’ve been told he’s maybe good enough to be a 5th OF. We shouldn’t count his hostels only his cold ones. And the glove work doesn’t count. But the arm does. Totally makes sense. Kids pitched really well to have thrown 70 pitches in 3 innings and given up two runs. OT’s of trash contact gone against him.
  19. Personally believe he’s been hurt all year. Hamstrings hang around forever and dog you. It might be that he’s too fat though. Too much banana pudding.
  20. He’s walking on a treadmill. Maybe running. Maybe a light jog. But definitely a treadmill. Hope for on field activities this weekend.
  21. And Whitley. But he’s on a rehab assignment. Which is funny to me because he’s in AAA so who gives a fuck if he comes back and gets rocked in AAA or A ball.
  22. I've got a 3 team division winner parley- Astros, Royals, Orioles- $10 to win $669. I've got an Astros win the World Series and Longhorns win the National Championship in football bet for $20.00 to win $5,040.00. I fully expect to be cashing both tickets.
  23. Sure. Or have some really funky pitch tunneling where they just absolutely can't differentiate between fastball and breaking pitch b/c it comes down the same chute. It was interesting to hear him talk about it. He's read and studied a lot of analytics and didn't watch bull durham where Costner explained strike outs are fascist. No pitch to contact for him. "Bad things happen with contact" or something like that.
