Bregman gold star!

Excellent throw on a soft squibber that helps keep Odorizzi pitch count down and extend his stay in this game

9 pitch inning!

Odorizzi looks fucking fantastic today

[Gourmand 7774]

Myles Straw double to left. Cmon Stubbs get him home 

 

[WBT 20415]

That sure looked like it hit the knob of the bat

[Gourmand 7774]

well done Chas, get that run home

[WBT 20415]

Good job Chas

[elfenix 34171]

Hits with runners on? Wtf is this black magic?

[tx 3 putt 76314]

Get more runs !!!!

[Gourmand 7774]

This inning, I like it.

[elfenix 34171]

Hang on to your butts, here comes the pen

Dusty should not use Raley here. Wtf. Garza hasn't even pitched.

Oh boy Raley time

[TonyTexas 10481]

That’ll work

[Dennis Taylor 18701]

Altuve saved that fucking aggy from another disastrous outing right there 

[tx 3 putt 76314]

That was damn near perfect 

[TonyTexas 10481]

Where are all of the “fucking shift” folks

[Gourmand 7774]

keep shitting on Straw!

[WBT 20415]

How did Straw not get to 2nd on that?  Damn he is shitty at taking advantage of his speed.

[WBT 20415]

Jones scored from 3rd on a bunt.  Upgrade over Yuli.

wtf are you talking about????

Raley got two of his batters--including Tatis Jr with the bases juiced---to pound the ball  into the ground in front of the plate.

Altuve made a really good play, if he doesn't at least 1 more run scores, probably 2. Tatis bailed him out as well by being very anxious on 3-0

[Gourmand 7774]

I don't understand why they didn't go to Garza here just to see what they've got. Five run lead, nobody on base to start the inning.....Cmon Dusty.

It was a pretty routine ground ball that every ML player should make?

Or I just don't give a fuck about where a guy in an Astros uniform played college ball?

[Gourmand 7774]

stop walking batters! 

five run lead, attack the goddamn strike zone.

[perfectchaos007 6596]

Tie run at the plate. Fuck this 

[WBT 20415]

I was wondering how he was out but the dumbass never hit the bag

[Gourmand 7774]

no lead is ever safe apparently

[clapclapclap 9000]

Joe BlowIt is terrible at every aspect of this game.

Meanwhile, Click just keeps picking his nose.

[tx 3 putt 76314]

Hahahaha OUT !!!!

[Gourmand 7774]

WTF WHY ARE YOU USING PRESSLY

[HtownHorn 14468]

Holy shit. Pressly going to have his arm fall off by the midseason mark. Dusty is so bad at managing pitching staffs.

[runthebone 7932]

I normally don't say this about active Astros, but fuck you, Joe Smith.

The game was on the line, I would have put him in.

Yeah I know but it just seems like we're relying on him way too much in those situations and I am concerned about his usage. 

Otoh, maybe those short stints recently made it possible to use him for a few hitters today. Still, I hate it.

The problem is Dusty too often tries to stretch multiple innings out of this shitty bullpen. Smith never should have come out for the 8th.

[runthebone 7932]

I wouldn't have sent Pressly out for the ninth, though.

who would you trust to get those three outs? not arguing, just asking.

I agree with your last sentence, however I don’t think there’s any manager, dead or alive, who could successfully manage this dumpster fire of a staff.

[Gourmand 7774]

A's lost 4-0. Let's get that game back. 

[tx 3 putt 76314]

Walk him
