Chance for redemption

Intentional walk to get to wooooo?

 

Probably not a bad choice.

Would McCormick even be a downgrade to Reddick at this point?  This dude sucks.

Bring on the Chas!

[UTexasFight 9,381]

In hindsight, putting Reddick behind Correa maybe not the best idea...

 

[Guadaloopy 10,927]

Way to put your fingerprints all over this game, Reddick.   

[UTexasFight 9,381]

Good ol playoff baseball.

3.5 innings in 1 hr, 40 minutes 

[HillaryFan420 121]

Just bench him in favor of Diaz.  Show some balls Dusty.  

[Guadaloopy 10,927]

This is the slowest 1-0 game I’ve ever seen.  

[UTexasFight 9,381]

Can we hire Beltran under the guise of a Twins employee to steal some fucking signs tomorrow?

[Wulaw Horn 18,984]

Yeah man, Reddick is wearing the goat horns today big time. 

[Wulaw Horn 18,984]

But by the by- Bregman has to get to third last inning or die trying.  It's a 1-1 game if he makes it there as Yuli drives him in. 

[Bojack 2,073]

I'm an Astros fan and I follow pretty closely but not as closely as some on this thread, I'm sure.  Has Reddick ever gotten a hit?  

[UTexasFight 9,381]

We bust it open this inning

It would have been out number 2.   Buxton was saying “I wish a MFer would.”

This one was rather large

[Gourmand 7,774]

man you fuckers keep talkin shit on Reddick

[Honeysucklerose 959]

I’m ready to be put out of my misery

[WBT 20,425]

This is dumb.  Looks like we really learned our lesson from pulling Greinke too early in Game 7.  

Framber should be starting tomorrow.

I really hate to agree with Eduardo on anything but this is definitely straight out of the Rays playbook.

Edited September 29, 2020 by WBT

[elfenix 34,182]

are you saving greinke for the 7th inning of game 3?  wtf?

[clapclapclap 9,000]

Hey Marwin, you got something in your beard.

[kevwun 15,659]

I can't even begin to fathom this reasoning.  He knows it's game 1 right?

[WBT 20,425]

And if we were going to do this, why the fuck did we throw Lance on Saturday after we'd already clinched, ensuring that he can't go until a hypothetical Game 3.

[clapclapclap 9,000]

Go to the dugout, get a drink, then sit crossed legged, Framberlamps.

[UTexasFight 9,381]

Why the fuck is our best pitcher in in the middle of game 1 when we are losing? 

[UTexasFight 9,381]

But hey, we picked up dusty’s option after  3 games this year

Game 3?  I like your optimism.

[UTexasFight 9,381]

This is Dallas Keuchel game 5 2015 LDS all over again 

 

except it’s game 1.

The pessimist in me makes me think ownership/GM is considers next season a wash still or the start of the rebuilding process.

We never should have hired him to begin with but no way this is Dusty's call.

Should be a fun postgame presser listening to dusty try to explain “his” thought process for pulling Greinke

It's acceptable to make the second out of the inning at 3rd base.  It's worth the risk b/c of the groundball or sac fly that can get a run in.  that ball hopped 18 times in the infield. Bregman should have given it a go. 

[Scraps 13,543]

When we score 0 runs this game it isn't going to matter who was pitching 

[UTexasFight 9,381]

Click feeding Eduardo stats now 

[clapclapclap 9,000]

Ridiculous that they have to wear a mask if they are sitting in the stands with no one within 50 feet.

Nice thumbs up, though.

That’s so lip readers can’t see all the four letter words Grienke has been spewing non stop this entire inning

[Guadaloopy 10,927]

Two of those for Bregs today.   Nice.  

[UTexasFight 9,381]

It was a good run espn

But you get the mute treatment when you start showing Bauer quotes

I stopped listening innings ago, Ford and Sparks only.

[Scraps 13,543]

comparing batting averages from 2017 to 2020 is so laughable.
