You idiot.

[Wulaw Horn 18980]

That fucking end to the no no was purely on angel. That 0-2 pitch was 2 balls inside the strike zone. Fucking clown.

Angel Hernandez

[VivaNaranja 466]

Hernandez's shitty calls aside, Bielak sucks.

[Rimbo 25779]

"I'm guessing Astros fans aren't happy with Angel Hernandez right now" NAWWWWW, RRRRREEEEAAALLY?

[Dennis Taylor 18706]

Bielak needs to 'cross up Stubbs and drill Angel right in the fucking mask

[Hornsbay22 463]

Angel has MLB by the balls. He sues them for discrimination and MLB is too afraid to fire him.

[Guadaloopy 10923]

Carlos is like “I can’t believe I am still out here.”

[Scraps 13542]

Just go to the next batter who fucking cares if he was actually safe....dumbshit should've went to 1st anyway

[Scraps 13542]

[Scraps 13542]

If we didn’t lose the roster spot, I wouldn’t be against a 10-game sit down for Bielak. 

[Scraps 13542]

[Gourmand 7774]

Sugar Land put another ass kicking on El Paso tonight, 10-1. 

Skeeters banged out 21 hits. Meyers stays red hot, going 3-for-6 to up his OPS to 1.000. Newly promoted JJ Matijevic was 4-for-5 with two doubles and has an OPS of 1.172. Siri went 2-for-2 with a single, HR, and two walks. 

Frances Martes pitched an inning in relief and struggled again with 4 BB, 1 K, and 1 ER. 

[henrygandorf 29175]

does anyone know what uncle mike’s avg is up to?  don’t need exact number, just, you know, what it’s about...

[tx 3 putt 76371]

[henrygandorf 29175]

weird, the stros don’t have anyone in the top 20 in slg. 

 

they do have the next 5 guys though. 

[Gourmand 7774]

Astros are +120 in run differential. The next closest is LAD at +99.

I've never noticed the "expected wins/ losses" stat before.  Factoring in runs scored and runs allowed, it appears to me that it is a "luck factor" type stat, as we know "sports happen" and values are hardly transitive across individual games.  That being said, Oakland's is 4 games to the good, as in their record is 4 games better than their X-W/L.  The Athletics are 44-30 actual,  and their X W/L is 40-34.  Our heroes are actually 3 games behind their actual at 44-28 vs an X-W/L of 47-25, for  a seven point swing in "luck."It's just a little indicator that shit  is about to get real in a big way...hopefully.  Time to leave the elephants in the tar pit...

Well. Since Stubbs was playing left field, anything could happen.

AND THOSE FIVE ARE ALL IN THE TOP-20 IN OPS.

 

That is insane. 

[henrygandorf 29175]

@huge and i have been utilizing this terminology for a number of years in multiple sports, but it's particularly appropriate here, recently.

 

this is the not fucking around crew. 

or as i put it when i'm trying to be extra douchey #tnfac

the not fucking around crew needs 8-2 in this 10 game stretch.
